简要总结
The purpose of this study is to demonstrate that patients will improve the immediate treatment outcomes from successive radiofrequency ablation (RFA) of incompetent perforator veins (IPVs).
详细描述
The purpose of this study is to demonstrate that patients who have competent great saphenous vein (GSV) and short saphenous vein (SSV) or have undergone prior successful endovenous treatment of an incompetent GSV and/or SSV but continue to demonstrate clinical symptoms of peripheral venous insufficiency resulting from incompetent perforator veins (IPVs) will improve the immediate treatment outcomes from successive radiofrequency ablation (RFA) of IPVs veins.

结局指标
主要结局
Quality of Life and Clinical Assessments Compared to Pretreatment Baseline.
时间窗: 6 months
QOL and clinical assessments measured by periodic CIVIQ2 and VCSS assessments were planned to be compared at each follow-up visit to pretreatment baseline. However, with the very low enrollment and limited data available, analysis and study results are inconclusive.
次要结局
- Cessation of Flow Through the Perforator Vein(6 months)
- CEAP Classification (Clinical Severity, Etiology or Cause, Anatomy, Pathophysiology)(6 months)
- Cessation of Flow Reflux Through the Perforator Vein(6 months)
