title: [Improvement of rehabilitation efficiency in patients with chronic venous insufficiency of the lower extremities].
abstract: The relationship between functional incompetence, development and severity of chronic venous insufficiency of the lower extremities was investigated by the method of clinical analysis of locomotor activity. Results of the study may be used to choose an optimal therapeutic modality and assess dynamics of its efficiency. It was shown that the treatment of chronic venous insufficiency in the majority of the patients is inefficient unless functional activity of the lower extremities is recovered. Stimulation of the muscular-venous pump improves the outcome of postoperative rehabilitation, permits to reduce its duration, and improves quality of life of the patients.
