Chronic venous disease (CVD) is a prevalent long-term condition associated with significant morbidity and healthcare input, particularly within community nursing services. It affects a substantial proportion of the adult population and is a leading cause of venous leg ulceration (Rabe et al, 2020). Venous leg ulcers represent up to 70% of chronic lower limb wounds and are commonly managed by community and tissue viability nurses (Guest et al, 2018). Healing is often prolonged, and recurrence rates remain high despite advances in compression systems and wound dressings.
