Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

To assess the efficacy of the Venablock©Vein Sealing System (VBVS) for the treatment of lower extremity superficial truncal veins in a real-world clinical setting in a multi-racial Asian population in Singapore.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

The purpose of the Registry to Investigate the Efficacy and Safety of Venablock©Vein Sealing System for Varicose Veins in Singapore (RIVERIA), is to investigate the performance of cyanoacrylate glue closure (CAC) using this device, in which multiple incompetent superficial saphenous truncal veins (great saphenous (GSV), short saphenous vein (SSV), anterior accessory saphenous vein (AASV) will be treated at the same setting, and compression stockings will not be used post-operatively. The inclusion criteria for this study will be liberalized, and veins up to 12mm in diameter will be treated. As such,RIVIERA will be the first prospective trial conducted in Asia on a predominantly Asian cohort of patients to report on the performance of Venablock© for blocking incompetent truncal veins. This study specifically focuses on the initial technical outcomes, safety, anatomical occlusion, and patient experience after treatment with Venablock© with broader inclusion of patients than previous caucasian based trials.
