Active clinical trials for "Varicose Veins"

Varicose veins of the leg often have superficial tributaries, which are often symptomatic and a major reason for coming to the doctor. When treating the main varicose vein inside the leg, some doctors prefer to remove these tributaries while others prefer to leave them. This trial aims to see if it is better to remove these veins at the time of the first laser procedure or better to leave them and only remove them when asked.

Varicose vein disease is a common health problem, which causes much discomfort to patients. Nowadays treatment modalities for greater saphenous veins include surgery and duplex guided foam sclerotherapy. These are two equally accepted and applied treatments for the same patient population. Choice of treatment often depends on the referral preference of the General Practitioner. Until now data are missing which treatment is more cost effective. The current proposal aims at comparing the effects, costs and patient preferences between duplex guided foam sclerotherapy and surgery in the treatment of greater varicose veins.

A study to see what effect the geko™ device has on blood flow in patients with lower limb vascular disease.

The purpose of this randomized study to compare effect of endoscopic injection of a mixture of cyanoacrylate and lipiodol versus cyanoacrylate and lauromacrogol in gastric varices.

Varicose veins are enlarged, noticeably bulging veins, which commonly occur in the legs and may cause discomfort. In this study, patients with varicose veins in the legs will be participating. The purpose of this research study is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of three different concentrations of an investigational drug, Polidocanol Endovenous Microfoam (PEM) compared to vehicle (inactive solution) in treating the symptoms and appearance of varicose veins.

The main objective of this study is to determine the efficacy of early administration of Sanvar® in combination with endoscopic treatment for the control of acute variceal bleeding.

Varicose veins are enlarged, noticeably bulging veins, which commonly occur in the legs and may cause discomfort. In this study, patients with varicose veins in the legs will be participating. The purpose of this research study is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of two different doses of an investigational drug, Polidocanol Endovenous Microfoam (PEM) compared to vehicle (inactive solution) when used following an approved heat treatment in subjects with varicose veins.

To determine the effect and safety of Varisolve® 0.125% [0.2%]

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of polidocanol injectable foam in the relief of symptoms, improvement of appearance, and overall effectiveness and safety in the treatment of varicose veins compared to placebo.

Longitudinal ultrasound orientation during central venous cannulation has been suggested by a number of radomised studies to offer superior cannulation rates. This technique may offer a simple, safe and cost-neutral step to improve cannulation rates in the widely performed minimally invasive endovenous intervention.
