Dr A Bamigboye has taken over responsibility for the updating of this review.
Title changed to 'Interventions for varicose veins and leg oedema in pregnancy'.
We updated and expanded all sections of the review. New outcomes added to this update include woman's perception of pain, need for pain relief, woman's satisfaction and acceptability with intervention, side‐effects, or adverse events of intervention, stopping of intervention early, complications associated with varicose veins and leg oedema (venous leg ulcer, venous thrombus, thrombophlebitis, bleeding of the varicose vein, deep vein thrombosis, pulmonary embolism, varicose eczema, or venous leg ulcers), admission to neonatal intensive care unit or special care nursery, low Apgar score less than seven at five minutes, duration of hospital stay, cost of hospital stay, and cost associated with intervention. We performed subgroup analysis. The conclusions of this update are unchanged. |
