Compression therapy is an accepted and proven therapy for patients with chronic venous insufficiency. Although widely recommended and commonly used before and following venous ablation procedures, there is limited consensus on the type, duration, and need for such therapy. We analyzed data from the American Venous Registry (AVR) to evaluate the frequency, type, and duration of compression therapy utilized before and after endovenous ablation across the United States.
