Abstract
Objectives: Exercise improves haemodynamic parameters in patients with chronic venous disease. There is a paucity of evidence on its effect in post-thrombotic syndrome (PTS). The aim of this systematic review is to assess the impact of exercise in PTS.
Methods: Adhering to PRISMA guidelines and following PROSPERO registration (CRD42021220924), MEDLINE, Cochrane Library, EMBASE database, and trial registries were searched on 19th May 2022.
Results: One article met the inclusion criteria and a narrative synthesis was carried out. The included randomised controlled trial reported a between-group mean difference of 4.6 points (p = .027) in the VEINES-QOL score and -2.0 points (p = .14) in the Villalta score, in favour of exercise therapy. The statistical significance threshold was not reached.
Conclusion: Data on exercise in PTS remains sparse but exercise appears to be a safe intervention. In the context of this literature, a potential future trial and outcome reporting measures are suggested.
期刊介绍：
The leading scientific journal devoted entirely to venous disease, Phlebology is the official journal of several international societies devoted to the subject.
