About this trial

This multicenter, prospective, observational study aims to generate and analyze real-world data on the effectiveness and safety of Ruscus aculeatus L. treatment in patients with symptomatic chronic venous disease classified as CEAP C1-C6. Patients receiving Ruscus aculeatus L. as part of routine clinical practice will be followed for 90 days without any study-mandated intervention. Disease severity will be assessed using the revised Venous Clinical Severity Score (rVCSS), pain using the Visual Analog Scale (VAS), quality of life using the Chronic Venous Disease Quality of Life Questionnaire (CIVIQ-20), treatment adherence using the Visual Analog Scale for adherence (VAS-U), and safety through the collection of adverse events during the observation period.
