Abstract

University of Pennsylvania School medical researchers have drafted a guideline concerning diagnosis and treatment of venous leg ulcers.

Five diagnostic modes on clinical assessment, venous disease, ankle brachial index, arterial disease, and pressure ulcers make up the diagnostic algorithm.
