Summary

This study looks at how to better identify early signs of chronic venous insufficiency (CVI) in people with dark skin tones, who are often underdiagnosed. Researchers will interview patients about their experiences and test new assessment techniques, including touch and special photography. The goal is to create fairer, more accurate guidelines for nurses and doctors.
