The analysis of venous blood flow velocity increase during ankle exercise

Our aim was to measure the venous blood flow velocity (VBFV) in case of hemiparetic patients, after passive and active thromboembolic methods, as well as the consensual effect in the hemiparetic limb following the active venous exercises in the healthy limb. We examined 215 patients, with the median age of 58.0 (55.0-63.0) years. The VBFV was measured with a HADECO BIDOP ES-100 V II type Doppler ultrasound device, using an 8 MHz head, on the femoral vein at the level of the hip joint. For statistical analysis, SPSS version 22 was used. After passive movement, on the hemiparetic side, compared to the value in resting state, the VBFV significantly (12.6; 11.6-13.5 cm/s; P < .001) increased. Following active venous exercises performed on the healthy side, the VBFV significantly (18.0; 15.6-19.6 cm/s; P < .001) increased compared to the value in resting state. Following the active venous exercises performed on the healthy side, the VBFV measured on the hemiparetic side (consensual effect) was significantly (15.1 [14.1-16.5] cm/s; P < .001) higher than the value on the hemiparetic side in resting state. Active and passive mechanical thromboprophylaxis methods can be effective. Movements of the healthy limb significantly increase the VBFV in the inactive limb, and patients can perform it themselves several times a day.

Objectives: To measure the effect of graduated compression stocking (GCS) length and body position on peak femoral venous blood flow velocity (PVV) and vessel diameter (VD). Methods: Twenty healthy adult volunteers had PVV and VD measured, using colour Doppler ultrasound, at baseline in three body positions. Knee- or thigh-length GCS were assigned randomly.Arandom sequence of the three positions was used to measure PVV and VD. The procedure was repeated, after a two-hour washout period, using the other length GCS. Results: There was no significant difference in the mean change of PVV ( P =0.74) or VD ( P =0.54) measurements from the baseline between thigh- and knee-length GCS. However, significant mean changes in PVV ( P =0.02) and VD ( P <0.001) measurements were observed for the three body positions, after adjusting for baseline values. Conclusions: In healthy volunteers, thigh- and knee-length GCS do not have an effect on PVV or VD, and body position affects PVV significantly, with or without GCS.

Introduction. Currently, there is insufficient data on the effect of modern antihypertensive therapy (AHT) on venous circulation, especially during physiological stress.Aim of the study – the investigation was to study the hemodynamic effects of a combination of a calcium channel blocker (CCB) and an angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitor during exercise in men with arterial hypertension (AH) and chronic venous diseases (CVD).Material and methods. In 46 men 30–50 years old with AH on the background of AHT, a comparative assessment of the dynamics of SBP, DBP, peripheral venous pressure (PVP), ultrasound parameters of venous blood flow of the left leg in response to physical activity (Ruffier’s test) was performed. The parameters were assessed in 23 patients with hypertension without CVD and 23 patients with hypertension and CVD. We studied the reaction before and after 14 days of combined AHT with the use of CCB (Amlodipine) and an ACE inhibitor (Lisinopril).Results. Before treatment, the response to exercise in patients of both groups was the same and was manifested by a twofold increase in the area of the lumen of the veins and a drop in blood flow velocity. Patients with CVD before treatment with exercise were characterized by an altered systemic hemodynamic response, more frequent cases of venous dilatation and decreased blood flow velocity. After AHT with exercise, both groups showed normalization and identity of SBP. DBP, PVP, a decrease in the severity of venous dilatation and a decrease in blood flow velocity. Patients with CVD after AHT in response to exercise are characterized by more pronounced venous dilatation and higher blood flow velocity.Conclusion. After 14 days of antihypertensive therapy in patients with hypertension without chronic venous disease and in patients with hypertension and chronic venous disease during exercise normalization of systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, PVP, a decrease in venous dilatation and a decrease in blood flow velocity are noted. Patients with CVD after AHT under load are characterized by varicose veins and accelerated venous blood flow.
