Duplex assessment of venous hemodynamics 3 oct 13th, 2011, morning 20mn2
1. Duplex Assessment
of Venous
Hemodynamics
Claude FRANCESCHI, Roberto DELFRATE
Paris France, Cremona Italy
2. Hemodynamics knowledge is the
backbone of nowadays
performance in Diagnosis and
Treatment of Arterial and Cardiac
disease
Hemodynamics ignorance is the
reason for the still raw diagnosis
and treatment of the Venous
Disease despite the advanced
technologies that cannot
compensate theoretical lacks
3. Venous Hemodynamics
knowledge demands a peculiar
intellectual effort because:
Not teached in most universities
Weakly promoted ( known?) by
the majority of Phlebology
Opinion Leaders and Scientific
Societies
More complex than arterial
4. Duplex assessment of
venous
hemodynamics is the
key point for a better
diagnosis and
appropriate treatment
strategy
IF lighted by rational
and coherent
theoretical models
5. Duplex aims at
assessing the
hemodynamic
changes of the
venous system
According to the
various
hemodynamic
configurations
6. Pressure and Flow Overloading is
responsible for TMP EXCESS
TMP Excess is Responsible for
-Veins Dilatation ( Varicose)
-Drainage impairment ( trophic changes :
edema, hypodermitis, ulcer…)
7. Pressure and Flow Overloading is due
to
Venous Block responsible for
-Permanent Venous Pressure Excess
-Compensatory collaterals (Open Shunts)
Valve Incompetence responsible for
-Deep Reflux ( various grades)
-Superficial Reflux
- -Closed Circuits ( Closed Shunts)
- -Deviated Flows ( Open deviated Shunts)
8. DUPLEX is able to assess all these
complex configurations made of
blocks and shunts
IF performed according to appropriate
data assessments
So providing accurate diagnosis and
consequently appropriate treatment
13. Valsalva Manoeuvre:
Increases the Toraco-abdominal venous
pressure
and reverses downwards the pressure
gradient but not the flow when blocked by
the valves closure
14. Valsalva Manoeuvre:
Valsalva is negative when the valves are
Competent
Flow is blocked by blowing ( systole)
and appears at release (diastole)
At
rest
Systole
=
blowing
Relax
Diastole
15. Valsalva Manoeuvre:
Valsalva is Positive when valves are
Incompetent Valve
Reverse Flow appears when blowing
( systole) and at release (diastole)
At

16. Exception!!!!!

59. Valsalva Manoeuvre:
Systolic Block of Thoraco-abdominal Pump
increases the Toraco-abdominal venous
pressure
So reversing downwards the pressure
gradient without flow reversal thanks to the
peripheral valves closure
60. Valsalva Manoeuvre:
Toraco-abdominal Pump Systolic Block
increases the Toraco-abdominal venous
pressure
So reversing downwards the pressure
gradient it produces a reversal reflux flow
when the peripheral valves are incompetent
61. Valsalva Manoeuvre:
How to achieve Valsalva Manoeuvre
easily and effectively :
Blowing into a KNOTTED STRAW
Blow!
