However, post-stent placement, patients often experience in-stent restenosis and thrombosis. Despite this, the role of lower limb movements in the functioning of stents and veins in IVCS patients remains unclear. This study aimed to address this knowledge gap by developing a computational model using medical imaging techniques to simulate IVCS after stent placement. <i>Methods</i>: This research used a patient-specific model to analyze the effects of lower extremity exercises on hemodynamics post-stent placement. We conducted a comprehensive analysis to evaluate the impact of specific lower limb movements, including hip flexion, ankle movement and pneumatic compression on the hemo-dynamic characteristics within the treated vein. The analysis assessed parameters such as wall shear stress (WSS), oscillatory shear index (OSI), and residence time (RRT). <i>Results</i>: The results demonstrated that hip flexion significantly disrupts blood flow dynamics at the iliac vein bifurcation after stenting. Bilateral and left hip flexion were associated with pronounced regions of low WSS and high OSI at the iliac-vena junction and the stent segment. Additionally, active ankle exercise (AAE) and intermittent pump compression (IPC) therapy were found to enhance the occurrence of low WSS regions along the venous wall, potentially reducing the risk of thrombosis post-stent placement. Consequently, both active joint movements (hip and ankle) and passive movements have the potential to influence the local blood flow environment within the iliac vein after stenting. <i>Conclusions</i>: The exploration of the impact of lower limb movements on hemodynamics provides valuable insights for mitigating adverse effects associated with lower limb movements post iliac-stenting. Bilateral and left hip flexions negatively impacted blood flow, increasing thrombosis risk.
