Considerations for successful Foam Sclerotherapy 1 Pre-operative duplex ultrasound examination of the leg is mandatory
2 Use Terumo syringes and Vygon 3-way tap with Luer Lock connections to make stable foam using the Tessari technique
3 Use one part liquid sclerosant to three or four parts of air
4 Prepare foam immediately before use
5 Administer foam in no greater than 2ml aliquots approximately 10-15 cm apart in the truncal veins and use a maximum of 16ml of foam per patient per 24hours
6 Empty the vein of blood as much as possible before foam injection, for example by raising the leg in the air or flushing with saline
7 Use 3% Fibrovein foam in truncal veins below the fascia and use 1% Fibrovein foam in more superficial veins
8 Remember sodium tetradecyl sulfate is at least twice as potent as polidocanol
9 Apply eccentric compression following foam sclerotherapy 10 Encourage patients to walk frequently after foam sclerotherapy
Considerations for successful Microsclerotherapy
1 Perform an ultrasound examination of the limb to exclude underlying venous insufficiency
2 Use liquid sclerosant—there is no benefit to using foam in small diameter veins
3 Use 0.5% Fibrovein for treating reticular veins and 0.2% Fibrovein for treating spider veins
4 Consider further dilution of 0.2% Fibrovein to 0.1% with normal saline for very fine diameter veins1,2
5 Use fine gauge needles typically 30G
6 Treat an area of no greater than 2 cm diameter with each injection
7 Inject no more than 0.1– 0.2ml volume with each injection
8 Use a maximum of 10ml 0.2% or 0.5% per patient per 24hours
9 Remember sodium tetradecyl sulfate is at least twice as potent as polidocanol, so use 0.2% for spider veins 10 Apply concentric compression followin
