Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
venous symptoms during the whole experiment measured by VAS, influence of leg muscle activity (by movement) on the volume of the lower limbs and on venous symptoms and venous ejection fraction (measured by stretch mark plethysmography)
