Filter by:The goal of this clinical trial is to compare efficacy of two wavelength for EndoVenous Laser Ablation (EVLA) in treatment of varicose veins of the lower limbs. The main questions it aims to answers are : 1. Is the increase of wavelength form 1470 nm to 1940 nm affect the efficacy of varicose veins treatment ? 2. Is the increase of wavelength reduce complication or pain ? Participants are patients with varicose veins of lower limbs and candidate for endovenous laser ablation. After laser ablation patients will be followed during 5 years for clinical evaluation, recording potential treatment complications and quality of life evaluation. Researchers will compare strategy 1(EVLA with an endovenous laser at 1940 nm) vs strategy 2 (EVLA with an endovenous laser at 1470 nm) in varicose veins treatment to see if efficacy of treatment is not reduce, and to see if complications of EVLA treatment can be reduced.
Venous insufficiency at lower extremities may result in clinical problems from cosmetic issues to ulcerations. When the frequency of venous insufficiency and its related problems are considered besides their diversity, it is encountered as a public health issue. This pathology is reported to affect 40% of women and 20% of men.1 Patients with varicose veins may complain of unsightly appearance, aching, heaviness, pruritus, and early fatigue of the affected leg. These symptoms worsen with prolonged standing and sitting and are relieved by elevation of the leg above the level of the heart. Also, mild edema is often present. More severe signs include thrombophlebitis, hyperpigmentation, lipodermatosclerosis, ulceration, and bleeding
The purpose of this study is to evaluate whether adding sulodexide to the patients with varicose veins who received radiofrequency ablation combined with sclerotherapy can reduce or improve the impact of adverse events。
The purpose of this study is to assess the impact of immersive soundscape on patient pain, stress, anxiety, heart rate and blood pressure during an outpatient vascular surgery procedure.
The National Varicose Vein Study is a cross-sectional, multicenter, observational study. The primary goal is to evaluate the 30 days outcome of the conventional great saphenous vein surgery (stripping) in the treatment of the symptomatic chronic venous insufficiency, comparing the results of difference Portuguese's health centers, comparing the following variables: thrombo-prophylaxis (pharmacology or mechanic; compliance); antimicrobial prophylaxis; quality of life; medication compliance; complications and work incapacity period.
The goal of this exploratory validation study is to compare levels of expertise (or non-expertise) between GI fellows and experts with the varix trainer. The main question it aim to answer is: Can the varix trainer distinguish levels of expertise (or non-expertise) between novices and experts for specific skills (torque, small wheel and retroflexion techniques)? Does the training with the varix trainer improves these specific skills of GI fellows? Participants will do the pre-training test, practicing eight-sessions (each session is approximately 15minutes) and then do the post-training test.
VelexTM Venous Catheter is a venous catheter for temporary use to treat a vein isolated segment, designed for the treatment of varicose veins of lower limbs by means of chemical ablation or empty-vein sclerotherapy. V.A.S.C. is a multicentric, prospective, open label, non-randomized PMCF study of VelexTM venous catheter used according to the indication of use within the scope of the CE mark. VelexTM venous catheter is intended for patients with varicose veins of lower limbs. The total minimum number of patients is 24 and the maximum 36 for the two centers participating. Each center shall enroll at least 8 patients andno more than 28.
This study aimed to clarify the safety of anticoagulant therapy after glue injection for cirrhotic variceal bleeding patients with portal vein thrombosis.
Patients meet Baveno VI criteria (with a liver stiffness <20kPa and with a platelet count >150,000 are considered to have very low risk of having varices requiring treatment, but whether these patients can be followed up by repetition of this criteria lacks sufficient evidence. This study aimed to assess the value of Baveno VI criteria for following up and monitoring of varices needing treatment in patients with compensated cirrhosis.
The purpose of the study is to determine the clinical impact of cyanoacrylate tissue adhesive treatment for Gastric Varices performed by Indiana University EUS physicians.
