Tight stockings under the microscope: new data on vein pressure
NCT ID NCT01558024
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looked at how compression stockings of different strengths change the size and pressure of leg veins in people with chronic venous insufficiency and healthy volunteers. Researchers measured vein diameter and leg pressure while participants stood, sat, or lay down. The goal was to better understand how stockings work, not to test a new treatment.
