Outcomes

Primary Outcomes

Occurence of stasis dermatitis

Macroscopic Analysis: The occurrence of stasis dermatitis will be determined by hyperpigmentation, measured using the Chromatic Palette. Changes in skin color vary from ecchymosis, hematomas, erythema, hyperpigmentation, hypochromia and cyanosis. The focus of our study being hyperpigmentation, the shades vary between brownish, grayish and reddish, depending on the evolution, clinical duration and skin color and severity of stasis dermatitis. The positioning of colors on a gradient scale in columns and lines favors the comparative process and location between nearby shades corresponding to the observed evidence. The inclusion of codes makes it possible to locate and classify skin colors in the situations in which they will be evaluated. In the final version that will be used, there are 72 color possibilities.
