Abstract
Objectives
Describe and analyze the sociodemographic, clinical and functional characteristics of individuals with chronic venous insufficiency (CVI) and compare the clinical severity with levels of mobility. Methods. Exploratory cross-sectional study in a single public health center. The study cohort comprised 99 individuals.
Interventions
Clinical, sociodemographic and physical activity level questionnaires were applied; we also evaluated ankle amplitude and sural triceps function. Descriptive statistics, independent t test and one-way ANOVA with post hoc Least Significant Difference (LSD) were performed.
Results
Ninety-nine participants (87.9% woman) with an average age with an average age of 60.6 ± 14 years who where recruited to the study. The cohort was composed of individuals were moderately active, 80% exhibited symptoms of the disease and approximately 40% reported reduced mobility. Individuals who had reduced mobility and less physical activity showed reduced ankle amplitude and muscle function (p <0.05).
Conclusion
CVI impacts on functional capacity, even in individuals with less severe disease.
