Brief Summary

The VenaCure EVLT 400 µm Fiber Kit is currently marketed for the treatment of varicose veins. AngioDynamics, Inc., the company that manufacturers the VenaCure device, is sponsoring this study to assess the safety and effectiveness of the VenaCure EndoVenous Laser Treatment (EVLT) 400 µm Fiber Kit for treatment of incompetent perforator veins (IPVs). The VenaCure EVLT 400 µm Fiber Kit has not been previously studied by AngioDynamics for the ablation of IPVs.

Conditions

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Acute Primary Ablation Success

    The primary effectiveness endpoint is "Acute Primary Ablation Success" defined as complete lack of flow or IPV disappearance in the entire treated segment. Success will be measured via Duplex Ultrasound imaging performed 10 days (± 3 days) post procedure. Primary ablation success must be measured by a physician other than the physician that performed the study procedure.

    10 day

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • Technical Success

    Treatment

Study Arms (1)

VenaCure EVLT 400 µm fiber Procedure Kit

EXPERIMENTAL

Only one limb can be treated and included in this study; however, multiple IPV's within the study limb may be treated. All IPV's treated will be followed according to the study schedule.

Device: VenaCure EVLT 400 µm fiber Procedure Kit

Interventions

The study intervention will be conducted according to the DFU included with the VenaCure EVLT 400 µm fiber Procedure Kit.
