Effectiveness of Compression Stockings After Isolated Vena Saphena Parva Stripping: A Retrospective Study
Abstract
Background: The objective of this study is to investigate the effectiveness of medium pressurized elastic compression stockings usage after isolated vena saphena parva stripping. Material and Methods: Between 2001 January2014 March, 60 patients (40 women, 20 men, mean age; 39± 11 years, 35 to 58 years range) treated with vena saphena parva ligation and total stripping for isolated vena saphena parva insufficiency, were enrolled in this retrospective study. Elastic bandage applied postoperatively. Patients were divided into two groups according to use of additional compression stocking for 4 weeks; as stockings using group, (group 1; 18 women, 12 men, mean age 35±12.2, 23 to 47 years) and as no stockings using group, (group 2; 22 women, 8 men, mean age 38±10.8, 27 to 49 years) and. Primary outcomes and secondary outcomes were evaluated. Results: Extremity volumes in Group 1 and Group 2 were reduced from preoperatively 4600±540 ml and 4740 ± 420 ml to postoperatively 4440±430 ml and 4660 ± 400 ml, respectively. There were no differences between two groups by means of time to return to work and complications. Extremity volumes and Visual Analogue Scale pain scores were detected statistically significant reduction at the end of 4 weeks in group 1. Conclusion: Additional use of compression stockings after isolated vena saphena parva stripping can provide significant reduction in extremity edema and visual analog scale pain score. On the other hand, developing complications and time to return to work in both groups seem similar

İZOLE VENA SAFENA PARVA STRİPİNGİ SONRASINDA KOMPRESYON ÇORAPLARININ ETKİNLİĞİ: RETROSPEKTİF ÇALIŞMA
Abstract
Amaç: Bu çalışmanın amacı, izole Vena Safena
Parva stripingi sonrasında orta basınçlı elastik
kompresyon çorabı kullanılmasının etkinliğini
araştırmaktır.
Gereç ve Yöntem: 2011 Ocak ile 2014 Mart
tarihleri arası izole Vena Safena Parva yetmezliği
nedeniyle opere edilen 60 hasta (40 kadın, 20 erkek,
yaş ortalaması; 39± 11, 35-58 yaş arası) bu
randomize kontrollü retrospektif çalışmaya dahil
edildi. Ekstremitelere postoperatif 3 gün boyunca
elastik bandaj uygulandı. Hastalar ilaveten 4
haftalık kompresyon çorabı giyenler (Grup 1; 18
kadın, 12 erkek, yaş ortalaması 35±12,2, 23-47 yaş
arası] ve giymeyenler (Grup 2; 22 kadın, 8 erkek,
yaş ortalaması 38±10.8, 27-49 yaş arası.) olmak
üzere iki gruba ayrıldı. Primer sonlanım ve
sekonder sonlanım sonuçları değerlendirildi.
Bulgular: Çalışma ve kontrol grubunda bacak
ortalama hacimleri sırasıyla preoperatif 4600±540
ve 4740 ± 420 ml iken postoperatif 4. hafta sonunda
4440±430 ml ve 4660 ± 400 ml’e geriledi. Dört
haftalık takip döneminde işe dönüş,
komplikasyonlar açısından fark gözlenmedi. Bacak
hacimleri ve vizuel analog skala ağrı skorlarında
grup 1’de istatistiki olarak anlamlı derecede bir
azalma saptandı.
Sonuç: İzole vena safena parva stripingi sonrası
ilave elastik kompresyon çorabı giyilmesi
ekstremite ödemi ve postoperatif ağrı hissinde
anlamlı derecede azalma sağlayabilir. Diğer taraftan
varis çorabı kullananlar ile kullanmayanlar
komplikasyon gelişimi ve işe dönüş zamanı
açısından benzer görünmektedir.
