Steam Ablation Versus Endovenous Laser Ablation for the Treatment of Great Saphenous Veins — LAST  

Varicose Veins Clinical Trial

Official title:
Comparative Randomized Clinical Trial of Steam Ablation Versus Endovenous Laser Ablation for the Treatment of Great Saphenous Veins

Clinical Trial Summary

Endovenous laser ablation is a common therapy of great saphenous vein insufficiency with a very high success rate. It works by heating and thereby obliterating the vein. Steam ablation is a new therapy that also works by heating and thereby obliterating the vein. The hypothesis of this study is that steam ablation is as effective as laser ablation, but that it results in better secondary outcomes (e.g., lower pain scores).

Clinical Trial Description

The study is a randomized clinical trial comparing two different therapies for endovenous ablation of great saphenous veins. The aim of the study is to test whether the anatomical success rate of Steam Ablation is not inferior to that of Endovenous laser ablation (EVLA) in treatment of great saphenous vein insufficiency and compare the treatment safety, patient reported outcomes and cost-effectiveness analyses between EVLA and Steam Ablation. ;

Allocation: Randomized, Endpoint Classification: Efficacy Study, Intervention Model: Single Group Assignment, Masking: Open Label, Primary Purpose: Treatment
