Non‐pharmacological interventions for preventing venous insufficiency in a standing worker population

摘要

BackgroundChronic venous insufficiency (CVI) is a common problem, affecting up to 50% of the population in industrialised countries. It is a chronic condition which, if untreated, can progress to serious complications that in turn can interfere with working ability. Standing at work is a known risk factor for CVI, yet the true effect of non‐pharmacological preventive strategies remains unknown. This is an update of a review first published in 2012.
