Overview
Brief Summary
VICARES is a prospective randomized, controlled, multi-center, double blind study treating venous insufficiency associated with incompetent saphenous veins with 1% and 3% Sodium Tetradecyl Sulfate (STS) solution utilizing the ClariVein system.
Detailed Description
Approximately 50 subjects diagnosed with an incompetent saphenous vein will be randomized to either 1% STS or 3% STS solution delivered by the ClariVein system under ultrasound guidance. Study duration for individual study patients, including follow-up visits, is anticipated to be approximately 16 weeks.

Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion Criteria
- •Adult patient with incompetent saphenous vein
- •Saphenous vein reflux \> 500ms (0.5s), as measured by duplex ultrasound

- •Candidate for endovenous procedure
Exclusion Criteria

- •Absence of a palpable pulse at posterior tibial or dorsalis pedis and an Ankle-Brachial Index (ABI) \<0.6
- •Multi-segmental axial deep venous reflux in at least two contiguous venous segments (e.g., femoral and popliteal) in the ipsilateral extremity
- •Previous surgical or endovenous procedure in the treatment section of the target vein
- •Previous superficial thrombophlebitis of the target saphenous vein with scarring in the treatment section
- •Pregnant or breastfeeding

Outcomes
Primary Outcomes
Patient-Reported Symptoms 7-Day Symptom Questionnaire (Heaviness, Achiness, Swelling, Throbbing & Itching) to Evaluate Improvement in Subject Reported Symptoms.
Time Frame: 12 weeks
The VEINES-QOL (VEnous INsufficiency Epidemiological and Economic Study Quality of Life) comprises 25 items that quantify disease effect on quality-of-life, \& a symptom questionnaire (VEINES-Sym) with 10 items that measure physical symptoms. A subset of the reported symptoms to Question 1 of the VEINES QOL/Sym is referred to as the 7-Day Symptom Questionnaire was used in this study. Subject response to each symptom was rated on a common 4-point response scale with lower scores representing better daily health outcomes (4=all day, 3=several times today, 2=once today, 1=not today). Weekly average score was calculated if at least 4 daily scores were present in the previous week. Daily total symptom score derived as sum of the responses across all symptoms (range = 5 to 20) Improvement in patient reported symptoms using the 7-Day Symptom Questionnaire (Heaviness, Achiness, Swelling, Throbbing \& Itching) at post-treatment Week 12 compared to Baseline is the primary endpoint of this study.
Secondary Outcomes
- Elimination of Saphenous Vein Reflux(12 weeks)
