To demonstrate the efficacy of duplex-guided foam sclerotherapy measured against patient symptom relief and quality of life.
An analysis was performed of 100 randomly chosen legs with varicose veins treated with ultrasound-guided foam sclerotherapy with a mean follow-up of 22.5 months.
An average number of 2.1 treatments using an average of 8.7 mL of foam sclerosing solution were required to close incompetent varicose veins. Thirty-one percent of leg varicose veins required a second treatment at 3 months; 100% of patients felt that their legs were successfully treated with resolution of all symptoms in 85% and resolution in all varicose veins in 92%.
Ultrasound-guided foam sclerotherapy is effective in treating varicose veins with high patient satisfaction with results and improvement in quality of life.
通过对比患者症状缓解情况及生活质量,证明双重引导下泡沫硬化疗法的疗效。
对100条随机选取的患有静脉曲张的腿进行分析,这些腿接受了超声引导下泡沫硬化疗法治疗,平均随访22.5个月。
闭合功能不全的静脉曲张平均需要2.1次治疗,平均使用8.7毫升泡沫硬化溶液。31%的腿部静脉曲张在3个月时需要进行第二次治疗;100%的患者认为其腿部得到了成功治疗,85%的患者所有症状消失,92%的患者所有静脉曲张消失。
超声引导下泡沫硬化疗法在治疗静脉曲张方面有效,患者对治疗结果满意度高,生活质量得到改善。
