ABSTRACT

Background: venous insufficiency (VI) of the lower extremities is a disease of high prevalence. Approximately 70% of the Mexican population suffers from this pathology, where the most frequent age range is 25-44 years.
Methods: an observational cross-sectional study was carried out in a sample of 309 students from the Autonomous Popular University of the State of Puebla. The presence of venous insufficiency was detected with the Perthes and Trendelemburg test with tourniquet and CEAP C classification to identify the stage of pathogenesis. Analytical, descriptive and interferential statistics were performed with the SPSS 23 program, using the Pearson chi-square to generate quantitative values.
Result: the prevalence of venous insufficiency was 84.14% in the study population. According to the chi-square test, the factors studied were positively correlated; however, the highest correlations were the use of heels (p = 0.578) and smoking (p = 0.670). According to the CEAP C classification, 82.35% of the inspection was in stage C1.
the factors with the highest correlation in the occurrence of VI are the use of heels and smoking, and these also show a positive relationship with stage C1 and C2. it should be mentioned that the symptomatology was present in 70% of the population from stage C1, with itching being the symptom of greater correlation with the pathology.
