Abstract：Chronic venous disease(CVD)is a specific type of condition gradually developed in humans due to upright walk-ing,characterized by persistence,progression,and long-term nature.Severe cases can significantly impact patients'quality of life and impose economic burdens on society.High-risk populations for CVD include individuals with genetic factors,pregnancy history,and aging,necessitating early screening and assessment to understand the severity and trends of the disease.Comprehensive intervention strategies for CVD pri-marily encompass medication,pressure management,surgical treatment,comprehensive prevention,and functional training.Personalized choices and timing control are essential based on different pathological and physiological mechanisms and ve-nous hemodynamics.Vascular surgery,as an emerging surgi-cal discipline,lacks a vascular medicine system.Many vascu-lar diseases exhibit characteristics of chronic illnesses,making it crucial to establish the concept of chronic disease manage-ment for the development of the discipline.The chronic dis-ease management approach for CVD needs to be built on a big data platform,utilizing modern network technology for high-risk population identification,early symptom screening,dis-ease status assessment,rational treatment method selection,and timing control throughout the management process.This approach aims to enhance patients'self-management abilities and quality of life.
