BACKGROUND: Chronic venous insufficiency (CVI) often leads to venous ulcers. The relationship between ankle joint range of motion (ROM) and venous ulcers remains under-investigated. This study aims to clarify this relationship using ultrasound imaging.
METHODS: We conducted a study on 20 patients with unilateral venous ulcers. Ankle ROM and popliteal vein blood flow were measured using a goniometer and ultrasound, respectively. The measurements were compared between the affected and unaffected limbs.
RESULTS: A significant reduction in ROM and popliteal vein blood flow was observed in the limbs with venous ulcers compared to the unaffected limbs. The data suggest a correlation between reduced ankle mobility and the development of venous ulcers.
CONCLUSION: The study underscores the importance of maintaining ankle mobility in patients with CVI to prevent venous ulcers. A multifactorial approach is essential for managing these conditions effectively.
