Quality of life of patients with chronic trophic ulcers of venous etiology

The quality of life of patients with trophic ulcers of venous etiology using the the Chronic Venous Insufficiency Questionnaire (CIVIQ) was studied. To assess the quality of life of the patient, the questionnaire was conducted before the transplantation of cord blood stem cells, 1 and 6 months after surgery. Patients in group I had a higher assessment of quality of life, because the healing process of the ulcer was faster, the feeling of pain decreased and as a result the patient's psycho-emotional state improved. In addition, the surveyed 12 (85.7%) surveyed patients of group I noted that even with the preservation of some symptoms, their subjective manifestations were reduced and the feeling has improved. All this helped to improve the assessment of the quality of life of patients with trophic ulcers of the lower extremities, which were treated according to our proposed method.
