NCT04266496

Brief Summary

With this prospective controlled trial, we hope to obtain more information about the coexistence between venous insufficiency and nocturia. In our opinion, venous insufficiency (CEAP 2-3a) leads to an increase in fluid accumulation in the lower limbs due to moving around all day. When laying down during nighttime, this fluid is reabsorbed into the systimic fluid pool, leading to an increase in diuresis and thus an increase in nocturnal voiding. Aim of this study is observe difference in nocturnal frequency and urine production before and after surgical treatment of venous insufficiency.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Change of micturition frequency

    Change of the micturition frequency with 1 void

    2 months after surgery

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • Change in nocturnal diuresis

    2 months after surgery

Study Arms (2)

<2 nocturnal voids

OTHER

All interventions in this group are done twice: Once before surgical intervention, and once 2 months after surgical intervention * Complete a 3 day Frequency Volume chart * Questionnaires: ICIG FLUTS/MLUTS, PSQI and CIVIQ2

Other: QuestionnairesDiagnostic Test: Frequency Volume Chart

=> 2 nocturnal voids

OTHER

All interventions in this group are done twice: Once before surgical intervention, and once 2 months after surgical intervention * Complete a 3 day Frequency Volume chart and collection of the urine of the last day and night to complete osmolality and sodium testing. * Measuring the circumference off the lower limbs just after awakining and before falling asleep * Questionnaires: ICIG FLUTS/MLUTS, PSQI and CIVIQ2

Other: QuestionnairesDiagnostic Test: Frequency Volume ChartDiagnostic Test: Collect urine during 1 dayDiagnostic Test: Blood sampleDiagnostic Test: Measurement of the circumference of the lower legs

Interventions

ICIQ FLUTS (women) or MLUTS (mannen) CIVIQ 2 PSQI

<2 nocturnal voids=> 2 nocturnal voids
Frequency Volume ChartDIAGNOSTIC_TEST

Collect a frequency volume chart for 3 days: measure the amount of voids and volume urinated.

<2 nocturnal voids=> 2 nocturnal voids

Volunteers are asked to collected their urine during the last day of the frequency volume chart. Volunteers get 2 jars: One for collection during the day, and 1 for overnight collection of urine. Osmolality and sodium of urine is tested

=> 2 nocturnal voids
Blood sampleDIAGNOSTIC_TEST

Blood collection to measure plasma sodium and osmolality.

=> 2 nocturnal voids

Circumference of the lower legs wil be measured twice: * After awakening, when still laying dowing in bed * Before goin to sleep Circumference should be measured 2 cm above the medial malleolus

=> 2 nocturnal voids
