Summary

Compressive stockings ameliorate functional outcome and quality of life in patients after elective orthopedic foot and ankle surgery. In this randomized controlled trial the investigators want to analyze the effect of compressive stockings after foot and ankle surgery. Additionally the investigators want to evaluate the compliance of the compressive stockings Treatment. Therefore an electronic chip device is implanted into the compressive stockings to monitor wearing time.

Conditions

  • Disorder of Ankle Joint

Interventions

DEVICE

Compressive stocking

After hindfoot and middlefoot surgery the patients from the Intervention Group will be treated with compressive stockings the removal of the suture. That means from the end of week 2 until the end of week 6 after surgery.
