Venous insufficiency is related to aging. Edema, pathological evolution of venous insufficiency, favors the appearance of venous ulcers as the main complication. Leg ulcers can be treated with compression, the Unna's boot being one of them, and noncompression therapies (conventional dressing).
Patients having ulcers of the two lower limbs underwent the same medical treatment. Yet, the elasto-compressive boot was placed on only one leg after compressotherapy with the Jobst apparatus. Scar formation was more rapid on the leg treated in this way. Applied preventively the treatment of edema
In many countries, endovenous ablation (EVA) has replaced surgical stripping as the preferred method of eliminating saphenous reflux in symptomatic patients. Studies have examined the success of EVA at saphenous closure and improving leg pain and edema. However, less information is available on the
Results of the laser therapy of varicose ulcers of the crus in 45 patients were analyzed. The laser therapy is considered by the author to favourably influence the healing of the ulcers, to reduce pain, edema and skin hyperemia.
The principal treatment of venous ulcers in ambulatory patients in bandaging. The physiological rationale for this treatment is to improve the venous hemodynamic abnormality caused by prolonged venous hypertension due to limb venous valvular incompetency. Correct bandaging results in the reduction
The objective of this study was to verify the effects of the decongestive physiotherapy (DP) in the healing of venous ulcers. It is an interventionist, and almost experimental, study with the participation of 20 clients who were divided into 2 groups: the control group (n = 10) and the intervention
The etiology of chronic venous insufficiency is typically neglected or misunderstood when treating lower-extremity edema and venous ulcerations. Despite the high prevalence of venous compression syndromes, it is rarely considered when treating venous ulcers and unresolved venous disease. We report a
Successful therapy of venous ulcers combines local wound treatment modalities and ambulatory hemodynamic support to control the underlying disease. Compression bandaging reduces or eliminates edema, and a moist wound environment not only debrides necrotic tissue but also aids development of
Venous ulcers affect approximately 1% of the world's population, increasing healthcare expenditures and decreasing quality of life. Several hypotheses may help explain their origin. Incompetent veins or valves or impaired muscle function may lead to abnormal calf muscle pump function that can
The efficacy of topical applications of povidone-iodine (Betadine solution and ointment) for the control of infection associated with decubitus and stasis ulcers was evaluated in 18 male outpatients (age range, 33--68 years). Dressings were changed twice daily over a period of 42 days. Statistically
Chronic venous ulceration is a common and important medical problem that causes significant morbidity. Venous ulcers are expensive to treat, have substantial economic effects in terms of days of work lost, and adversely impact the patient's quality of life. Relying on evidence allows for a rationale
Chronic venous ulcer disease is often refractory to conservative treatment modalities. After surgery of the superficial vein system, endoscopic methods can be used for division of incompetent perforators or to perform paratibial fasciotomy in cases of chronic functional compartment syndromes. We
Compression to the lower extremities is used to increase healing of venous stasis ulcers by improving the blood supply and reducing edema and distension. Compression wraps are available in elastic or non-elastic and in single to multilayer systems requiring varying types of application and exerting
Microcirculatory changes in chronic venous insufficiency (CVI) due to venous hypertension produce venous hypertensive microangiopathy (VHM) and lead to ulceration. VHM is characterized by enlarged, convoluted capillaries; increase in flux, permeability, and edema; and altered microlymphatics. PO2 is
