简要总结
The purpose of this study is to compare functional status and quality of life of a group of patients with chronic venous insufficiency treated with manual lymphatic drainage with a group not treated with manual lymphatic drainage.
Investigators hypothesized that manual lymphatic drainage can improve:
- quality of life,
- functional status,
- calf muscle strength,
- ankle range of motion,
- edema,
- severity of disease,
- and symptoms.

结局指标
主要结局
Quality of Life
时间窗: Assessed at baseline (no intervention), after approximately one month, with an error of three days (10 sessions of manual lymphatic drainage, for experimental group) and after approximately two months from baseline (with an error of 5 days)
Evaluated by portuguese version of Chronic Venous Disease Quality of Life Questionnaire (CIVIQ-2).
次要结局
- Hemodynamic evidence of severity of chronic venous disease(Assessed at baseline (no intervention), after approximately one month, with an error of three days (10 sessions of manual lymphatic drainage, for experimental group) and after approximately two months from baseline (with an error of 5 days).)
- Sel-reported functional status(Assessed at aseline (no intervention), after approximately one month, with an error of three days (10 sessions of manual lymphatic drainage, for experimental group) and after approximately two months from baseline (with an error of 5 days))
- Lower extremity symptoms(Assessed at baseline (no intervention), after approximately one month, with an error of three days (10 sessions of manual lymphatic drainage, for experimental group) and after approximately two months from baseline (with an error of 5 days).)
- Leg edema(Assessed at baseline (no intervention), after approximately one month, with an error of three days (10 sessions of manual lymphatic drainage, for experimental group) and after approximately two months from baseline (with an error of 5 days).)
- Clinical severity of chronic venous insufficiency(Assessed at baseline (no intervention), after approximately one month, with an error of three days (10 sessions of manual lymphatic drainage, for experimental group) and after approximately two months from baseline (with an error of 5 days).)
- Calf muscle strength and ankle range of motion(Assessed at aseline (no intervention), after approximately one month, with an error of three days (10 sessions of manual lymphatic drainage, for experimental group) and after approximately two months from baseline (with an error of 5 days))
