title: [The value of peripheral venous pressure measurements in the lower extremities under static and dynamic conditions].
abstract: With the help of 3 groups of persons (normal persons, carriers of varices, patients with deep phlebemphraxis) peripheral measurements of the venous pressure in a quiet standing (statical part) as well as before, during and after strong movements of the feet up and down (dynamical part) were performed. It was found that statical measurements do not allow a diagnostical evidence, and thus they are unsuitable for practice. However, measurements off the venous pressure under dynamical conditions in normal persons and carriers of varices show gradually different pressure-relieving changes in the veins of the feet, which nearly stay away when a deep phlebemphraxis of the legs is present. High frequencies of motion cause the clearest reliefs of the venous pressure in the feet, though also slow kinds of motion are still active. Sex-specific signs were not found.
