Evaluation of Venous Insufficiency

Seminars in Cutaneous Medicine and Surgery, 2005
"Venous disease consists of a spectrum with significant medical and economic morbidities. For lack of exposure, however, it is a poorly understood subject. The evaluation and approach to diagnosing venous disease requires a firm understanding of venous anatomy and pathophysiology.

Chronic venous insufficiency

Current Treatment Options in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2003
Patients with chronic venous insufficiency arguably have been relegated to a standard of care that is lower than that for those with the more appealing entity of peripheral arterial disease. Fortunately, the collaboration of an expanding group of clinicians (including cardiologists and vascular medicine specialists) with vascular surgeons is ...

Surgery for deep venous insufficiency

Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, 2021
Chronic deep venous insufficiency is caused by incompetent vein valves, blockage of large-calibre leg veins, or both; and causes a range of symptoms including recurrent ulcers, pain and swelling. Most surgeons accept that well-fitted graduated compression stockings (GCS) and local care of wounds serve as adequate treatment for most people, but ...

Muscle Changes in Venous Insufficiency

Archives of Surgery, 1984
The diagnosis of venous insufficiency and hypertension was established in 53 patients using standard diagnostic methods including ascending and descending venography, venous pressure measurements, and photoplethysmography. Autogenous vein valve transplant, which is gaining acceptance as a treatment for this condition, was employed in this group of ...

Epidemiology of Chronic Venous Insufficiency

Angiology, 1997
In contrast to the knowledge on the frequency and determinants of arterial diseases, little epidemiologic research has been carried out on venous diseases; this may be partly due to methodological problems in defining chronic venous insufficiency and in measuring these conditions with sufficient validity.

Treatment of chronic venous insufficiency

Current Treatment Options in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2007
Chronic venous insufficiency (CVI) results from venous hypertension secondary to superficial or deep venous valvular reflux. Treatment modalities are aimed at reducing venous valvular reflux, thereby inhibiting the ensuing pathologic inflammatory process. Compression therapy using pumps, bandaging, and/or graded compression stockings is the mainstay of

Chronic venous insufficiency and venous leg ulceration

Journal of the American Academy of Dermatology, 2001
Venous ulcers are the most common form of leg ulcers. Venous disease has a significant impact on quality of life and work productivity. In addition, the costs associated with the long-term care of these chronic wounds are substantial. Although the exact pathogenic steps leading from venous hypertension to venous ulceration remain unclear, several ...
