About this study

Official title: Volume Estimation of Lower Limbs Before and After Endovascular Venous Intervention or Conventional Surgery in Venous Disease

Chronic venous disease encompasses a broad spectrum of clinical presentations and is considered the most common vascular disease. Its causes are diverse, including primary defects of the wall or valves, chronic venous insufficiency, or lesions secondary to thrombosis, a post-thrombotic venous disease, affecting the superficial or deep venous network or both. The major symptom of venous disease is the enlargement of the lower limbs, which can result in edema. The evaluation of the volume of the lower limbs is very important in the diagnosis and follow-up of the venous pathology. There is a great variability of clinical pictures making it difficult to choose the therapeutic gesture. Endovascular venous interventions and conventional venous surgery are major advances in the treatment of venous disease. The variation of lower limb volume in pre and post procedure is a determining factor; thus orienting clinicians for post interventional therapeutic monitoring. Indeed the management of venous disease is multidisciplinary, it involves the cooperation of several specialists as part of its monitoring and its therapeutic management. Our collaborative group includes the Adult and Child Vascular Investigations Department, the Vascular Clinic, the Cardiovascular and Thoracic Surgery Department, and the Interventional Radiology Department. The evaluation of the variation of the volumes of the lower limbs is a capital data for the various specialists for the care in pre and post procedure. A volumetric 3D scanner system guarantees a reliable measurement ensuring optimal evolution and therapeutic follow-up.

Read the detailed description

At admission eligible patients are proposed to participate. Written consent is signed after complete oral and written explanation of the protocol is signed. No register of non-included patients will be kept.

In included patients, in parallel to the routine ultrasound investigation for which the patient is referred, the evaluation of the variation of the volumes of the lower limbs with the volumetric 3D scanner will be performed as explained later in arm description.

Usual ongoing treatments are obtained by history and recorded. The end of the visit is the end of the participation of the subjects.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • lower limb volume estimationDevice

    The 3D scanner system is a three-dimensional measurement system.

    It allows to evaluate the volume of the lower limbs in order to quantify the evolution of the edema of the lower limbs in the venous pathology in pre and post therapeutic technique.

    It is a non-invasive, easily accepted, non-invasive, non-invasive technique that minimizes discomfort.

Study groups in NCT03703765
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Lower limb volume estimationExperimentalPatients referred for a preoperative venous assessment as part of an indication for interventional management, whether by conventional or endovascular surgery, of a chronic venous pathology. Intervention is measurement of lower limb volume with scanner 3D system before and after surgery or vascular intervention.
Receives: Device: lower limb volume estimation

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Volume of lower limbs

    Change of volume of the lower limbs will be assessed with a volumetric 3D scanner

    Measured: 12 months

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Change in symptoms and quality of life

    Change in symptoms and quality of life of patients assessed with the CIVIQ questionnaire

    Measured: 12 months

  2. Change in symptoms and quality of life

    Change in symptoms and quality of life of patients assessed with the SF36 questionnaire

    Measured: 12 months

  3. Change in symptoms and quality of life

    Change in symptoms and quality of life of patients assessed with the Villalta score for patients treated for post thrombotic syndrome

    Measured: 12 months

  4. Change in symptoms and quality of life

    Change in symptoms and quality of life of patients assessed with the CEAP classification for patients treated for superficial venous insufficiency

    Measured: 12 months

  5. Validity

    To validate the measurement of the volume of the lower limbs by a 3D scanner system compared to measurement by a tape measure (gold standard) in venous disease.

    Measured: 1 hour

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing lower limb volume estimation in people with Venous Disease, run by University Hospital, Angers at 1 site in France.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 3 inclusion and 3 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 11 Jun 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in France. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Volume of lower limbs (time frame: 12 months). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 11 Jun 2024.
