| dc.description | Acknowledgments The study was jointly sponsored by University of Edinburgh and NHS Lothian. The start up phase of the trial (December, 2008–March, 2010) was funded by Chief Scientist Office of the Scottish Government (ref CZH/4/417). The main phase of the trial was funded by the National Institute of Health Research (NIHR) Health Technology Assessment (HTA) programme (ref 08/14/03). Covidien (MA, USA) lent their Kendall SCD Express Sequential Compression System Controllers to our 105 centres and donated supplies of their sleeves. They also provided logistical help in keeping our centres supplied with sleeves and training materials relevant to the use of their devices. Recruitment and follow-up was supported by the NIHR funded UK Stroke research network and the Scottish Stroke Research network which was supported by NHS Research Scotland (NRS). A full description of the trial will be published in the Health Technology Assessment journal series. Visit the HTA programme website for more details.
