VEINOPLUS® V.I. is a medical electro-stimulation device with therapeutic effects upon various symptoms of Venous Insufficiency. These effects have been demonstrated and documented in several clinical studies made since 2004 in France, UK, USA and Russia
Over 100 000 people with venous problems in 25 countries have already chosen the technology VEINOPLUS® V.I.

History of disease:
Mr V born in 1935, has a post-thrombotic syndrome (PTS) with chronic leg ulcers, since 1953 without stable healing.
January 1953: Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) of the right lower leg
Août 1953 : First right ankle ulcer.
1957-2002: Alternate healing and recurrence of ulcers
2002: Admission to Saint-Michel hospital, left ulcer healing but persistence of the right ulcer
Material and Methods
For patient V, in the absence of chronic right ulcer healing and after using the entire armamentarium of local care and compression therapy, it seemed interesting to use Veinoplus® to potentiate the effect of compression.
Electrostimulation, due to an electrical impulse causes a muscle contraction and the muscle temporarily drain the blood that had been accumulated there before its implementation.
Mr V used Veinoplus ® at a rate of one session per day (20min) at home.
Results
3 months after initiation of treatment (Veinoplus ® + compression) ulcer surface was reduced by half and seven months later, healing was complete.
Conclusion :
The use of electrostimulation Veinoplus ® for the treatment of venous stasis in patients with chronic venous trophic disorders, potentiates the effect of conventional treatment of this stasis (compression, ambulation) and thus leads to faster healing .
This has to be verified by a study on a larger scale.
