Anthropometric and Psychosocial Measurements in Vascular Disease

This experimental study is to verify a possible correlation between vascular disease, and anthropometric, and psychosocial measurements. Consecutive patients with vascular diseases (Chronic Venous Disease, Carotid Stenosis, Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm, Peripheral Artery Disease) will be referred to Vascular Surgery Units of two hospitals linked to Interuniversity Center of Phlebolymphology (CIFL) International Research and Educational Program in Clinical and Experimental Biotechnology (Mater Domini University Hospital of Catanzaro and the Federico II University Hospital of Naples) to be evaluated. Since it is necessary to study the anthropometric measures and the psychosocial aspects, different types of measurements will be carried out in order to correlate them with the aforementioned vascular disease.
