Chronic Venous Disease(CVD), is a condition that affects the veins in the legs, causing them to become enlarged, twisted, and dysfunctional. The CEAP classification system is used to grade the severity of CVD, based on clinical signs and symptoms. The CEAP classification consists of four components: clinical class (C), etiology (E), anatomical distribution (A), and pathophysiological dysfunction (P).

CVD tends to progress from lower to higher CEAP clinical classes over time, with an increased risk of developing complications as the disease advances

The CEAP classification is helpful in determining the severity of CVD and guiding treatment. Regular monitoring and appropriate treatment may be helpful to manage the disease and prevent complications.
