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.

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, 2021Chronic 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, 1984The 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, 1997In 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, 2007Chronic 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

The impact of obesity on venous insufficiency
Phlebology: The Journal of Venous Disease, 2014Association between chronic venous disease and obesity has recently been studied, with indications that it may worsen in obese patients. The aim of study was to correlate clinical classes of chronic venous disease according to Clinical Etiology Anatomy Pathophysiology (CEAP) classification and body mass index, as well as to compare the severity of ...

Chronic venous insufficiency of the lower extremities is a common medical problem, with a high prevalence among older persons. Among the costly complications of this disease is venous ulceration, which adversely affects quality of life. As the population of older persons increases, the prevalence of this disease and resulting complications is expected ...
