Correlation between reflux time and venous clinical severity score in patients undergoing saphenous vein ablation: A prospective study.
Objectives: It is unclear whether reflux time independently correlates with severity of symptoms in patients with great saphenous vein reflux.
Methods: Eighty patients (mean age 64+/-12.7 years, 56% female) undergoing great saphenous vein (GSV) ablation for symptomatic reflux were assessed prospectively. Fifty-seven underwent ablation with radiofrequency, 23 with cyanoacrylate adhesive. Venous clinical severity score (VCSS) was assessed at, or prior to the time of ablation. The highest reflux time in the GSV was selected.
Results: VCSS values ranged from 2 to 20 (median 7). Mean reflux time was 5.3 s (+/-3.3). The Spearman rank correlation yielded a value of rs = -0.123, p (2-tailed) = .279, which was not significant. The patients with concomitant deep vein reflux had higher VCSS (p < .05). Analysis of patients with only superficial vein reflux (n = 45) also demonstrated a poor correlation between VCSS and reflux time (rs = -0.051, p (2-tailed) = .741).
Conclusion: This prospective study did not demonstrate a correlation between reflux time and VCSS.
期刊介绍:
The leading scientific journal devoted entirely to venous disease, Phlebology is the official journal of several international societies devoted to the subject. It publishes the results of high quality studies and reviews on any factor that may influence the outcome of patients with venous disease. This journal provides authoritative information about all aspects of diseases of the veins including up to the minute reviews, original articles, and short reports on the latest treatment procedures and patient outcomes to help medical practitioners, allied health professionals and scientists stay up-to-date on developments.
