Abstract

Introduction: Varicose disease in the lower limbs is a pathology of high prevalence in the population, and several factors are related to its appearance and evolution.

Objective: to evaluate the association of changes in body composition with factors associated with chronic vascular disease (CVD) with varicose veins of the lower limbs.

Methods: this is a cross-sectional, prospective study with patients who underwent varicose vein surgery in a referral hospital, from May to November 2018. A semi-structured research instrument was used with questions that addressed factors associated with DVC. Pearson's chi-square and Fisher's exact tests were used for data analysis, in addition to the Kendall concordance test.

Results: 146 individuals were selected, 89% of whom were female, with a mean age of 48.89 years. The vast majority (76%) had a family history of venous disease, had no history of venous ulcers, individual and family venous thromboembolism or previous surgery. In addition, more than 50% did not perform physical activity, and 65% were overweight or obese. When analyzed statistically, the factors did not differ between non-eutrophic and eutrophic. The Kendall Agreement Test showed a good correlation between the order of appearance of the factors among all groups studied.

Conclusions: The most prevalent associated factors in the population studied were the presence of family history of varicose veins in the lower limbs, female sex, and the presence of overweight / obesity. The presence of changes in body weight did not determine differences in the occurrence and appearance of the factors evaluated.
