Design outcomes

Primary

Measure	Time frame
Postoperative swelling of the upper and lower leg measured at multiple moments: before and immediately after mobilization during hospitalization, and at 7 and 14 days after surgery on the outpatient clinic. Mobilization occurs 6 hours after surgery and from the first day postoperative twice a day until discharge. Swelling of the leg is defined as the difference in circumference of the leg in centimeters, compared to the preoperative circumference of the leg, measured at 2 standardized points. Length of hospital stay.	—
