Clots in the leg can cause swelling, pain and other problems. If a clot in the leg travels to the lungs, it may be life threatening. Having surgery increases the risk of developing blood clots.\n\nPeople having short-stay surgery (who either go home the same day or who stay overnight but go home shortly afterwards) are at a much lower risk of developing a blood clot than those who stay in hospital for longer. These low-risk people are often given elastic stockings (which squeeze the leg muscles) to reduce the chance of a blood clot.\n\nThe risks of wearing the stockings are low but they can be uncomfortable. In the UK, there are over a million short stay surgeries performed each year and most of these people are given elastic stockings to wear. Stockings cost the NHS a lot of money and it remains unknown if they work.\n\nThis study will investigate if it is worthwhile to continue using elastic stockings in people having surgery where the risk of developing blood clots is low. Adults (over 18-years) who are at low risk of developing blood clots (assessed using a nationally recognised tool) will be included.'}, 'eligibilityModule': {'sex': 'ALL', 'stdAges': ['ADULT'], 'maximumAge': '59 Years', 'minimumAge': '18 Years', 'healthyVolunteers': True, 'eligibilityCriteria': 'Inclusion Criteria:\n\n* Adults (18-59 years of age) scheduled to undergo a surgical procedure with a hospital stay \\<48 hours\n* Individuals assessed as being at low-risk of developing VTE as per the DHRA Tool (i.e. no assessed thrombosis risk factors / scoring 0)\n\nExclusion Criteria:\n\n* Individuals with a contraindication to GCS\n* Individuals assessed as being at moderate or high-risk of VTE as per the DHRA tool\n* Individuals requiring therapeutic anticoagulation\n* Individuals with thrombophilia/ thrombogenic disorder\n* Individuals with a previous history of VTE\n* Individuals requiring intermittent pneumatic compression therapy beyond theatre and recovery\n* Individuals requiring extended thromboprophylaxis beyond discharge\n* Female patients of childbearing age who have a positive pregnancy test\n* Individuals with lower limb immobilisation\n* Inability to provide informed consent'}, 'identificationModule': {'nctId': 'NCT05347550', 'acronym': 'PETS', 'briefTitle': 'Examining the Benefit of Graduated Compression Stockings in the Prevention of vEnous Thromboembolism in Low-risk Surgical Patients', 'organization': {'class': 'OTHER', 'fullName': 'Imperial College London'}, 'officialTitle': 'Examining the Benefit of Graduated Compression Stockings in the Prevention of vEnous Thromboembolism in Low-risk Surgical Patients: a Multicentre Cluster Randomised Controlled Trial (PETS)', 'orgStudyIdInfo': {'id': '22CX7651'}}, 'armsInterventionsModule': {'armGroups': [{'type': 'NO_INTERVENTION', 'label': 'Control - No graduated compression stockings', 'description': 'In those centres randomised to the control arm, participants will not receive Graduated Compression Stockings (GCS).'}, {'type': 'EXPERIMENTAL', 'label': 'Intervention - The provision of graduated compression stockings', 'description': 'Centres randomised to the intervention arm, which is the current standard of care, will consist of participants receiving Graduated Compression Stockings (GCS).
