deep vein patency test

The deep venous patency test (Perthes test, also known as kick test) is an auxiliary test for checking the normality of venous blood vessels. Used to measure deep venous return, deep veins in patients with varicose veins of the lower extremities are often unobstructed. The tourmaline was used to block the trunk of the superficial vein of the thigh, and the paralyzed patient kicked the leg vigorously or performed squatting activity for more than 10 times. At this time, the contraction of the calf muscle pump forced the venous blood to flow back to the deep vein, so that the varicose veins were evacuated. If the superficial varicose veins are more obvious after the activity, the tension is increased, and even the pain is painful, it means that the deep veins are not smooth. Through this examination, the corresponding symptoms can be judged. Basic Information Specialist Category: Cardiovascular Examination Category: Other Examinations Applicable gender: whether men and women apply fasting: not fasting Analysis results: Below normal: Normal value: no Above normal: negative: A negative test (-) indicates deep venous patency. Positive: A positive test (+) indicates that the deep vein is not patency. Tips: The patient actively cooperates with the doctor, the doctor patiently operates and carefully observes the results. Normal value A negative test (-) indicates deep venous patency. Clinical significance A positive result test (+) indicates that the deep vein is not smooth. The varicose veins of the lower extremities in the population to be examined should be checked for deep venous obstruction. Low results may be diseases: high inferior vena cava obstruction syndrome in children may be disease: vascular disease considerations Taboo before the test: maintain a normal diet and sleep. Requirements for examination: The patient actively cooperates with the doctor, the doctor patiently operates, and carefully observes the results. Inspection process The tourmaline was used to block the trunk of the superficial vein of the thigh, and the paralyzed patient kicked the leg vigorously or performed squatting activity for more than 10 times. At this time, the contraction of the calf muscle pump forced the venous blood to flow back to the deep vein, so that the varicose veins were evacuated. If the superficial varicose veins are more obvious after the activity, the tension is increased, and even the pain is painful, it means that the deep veins are not smooth. Not suitable for the crowd Inappropriate population: venous ligation or resection of the lower extremities.
