treatment group

Microwave Ablation Therapeutic Apparatus. Patients with primary lower extremity varicose veins were treated with endovenous microwave therapy using Microwave Ablation Therapy Apparatus. Ultrasound examination and questionnaire survey(AVVQ and VCSS) were performed at 1 week, 3 months, 6 months,12 months after treatment,drug use and adverse events were recorded to assess complications and target lesion closure rate.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Microwave Ablation Therapeutic Apparatus

Intervention Type DEVICE

The selected and qualified subjects with primary lower extremity varicose veins were randomly treated with microwave ablation equipment or laser treatment equipment. Subjects in the two groups were returned to the hospital for follow-up at 7 days, 3 months, 6 months, 12 months after surgery, respectively, for ultrasound examination and questionnaire evaluation, medication status and adverse events were recorded, and target lesion closure rate and subject satisfaction were evaluated.

control group

Semiconductor Laser Treatment Apparatus. Patients with primary lower extremity varicose veins were treated with endovenous laser treatment using Semiconductor Laser Treatment Apparatus. Ultrasound examination and questionnaire survey(AVVQ and VCSS) were performed at 1 week, 3 months, 6 months, 12 months after treatment,drug use and adverse events were recorded to assess complications and target lesion closure rate.
