Raghavendra Rao: A Narrative Review on Chronic Venous Disease during Pregnancy

Raghavendra Rao, General Surgeon at Vein Clinic, Founder of Best Surgical Education, LLC, shared a post on LinkedIn about a recent article by Raluca Stefana Stan et al., published in Journal of Clinical Medicine, adding:

“A narrative review on Chronic venous disease during pregnancy

I found this article interesting as my wife had severe restless leg syndrome during pregnancy and wanted to explore treatment options.

How do physiological changes during pregnancy affect CVI, and are these changes reversible?

The role of compression and its grade.

  • Are endovenous ablations, and particularly sclerotherapy, safe during pregnancy and lactation?
  • Are venotonic drugs safe during pregnancy and lactation?
  • How does the diagnosis of DVT, particularly the use of the D-dimer, change in the pregnant patient?

Elegantly discussed by this narrative review in the Journal of Clinical Medicine.”
