- Revolutionizing Leg Ulcer Treatment: The TIRS Technique and the Rise of Dermato-Phlebology
A Call to Action for Healthcare Professionals
This post is for healthcare professionals treating venous diseases like spider veins, varicose veins, venous eczema, and particularly, venous ulceration. It's time to rethink our approach to leg ulcer treatment and explore the innovative TIRS technique and the emerging field of dermato-phlebology.
The Unacceptable Burden of Venous Leg Ulcers
Venous leg ulcers represent a significant public health issue, affecting 1-2% of the population. These chronic wounds cause considerable pain, reduce quality of life, and place a substantial burden on healthcare systems. Despite the availability of treatments, many patients continue to suffer needlessly.
Challenging the Status Quo: The TIRS Technique
Developed by world-renowned vein specialist, Ron Bush, MD, the Terminal Interruption of the Reflux Source (TIRS) technique offers a new paradigm in leg ulcer management. TIRS involves the targeted application of foam sclerotherapy to the ulcer bed, effectively shutting down the refluxing vessels responsible for the persistent inflammation and impaired healing.
Key Advantages of TIRS:
Simple and Efficient: Can be performed with minimal equipment, making it accessible even in resource-constrained settings.
Rapid Healing: Studies show significantly faster healing rates compared to compression therapy alone.
Reduced Pain: Provides an "internal compression dressing" effect, decreasing pain and inflammation.
Versatility: Effective for ulcers associated with superficial reflux, deep reflux, and even venous obstruction.
The Dermato-Phlebology Revolution
Dr. Bush also sheds light on dermato-phlebology, a burgeoning field exploring the intricate relationship between venous disease and skin health. By analyzing skin biopsies, Dr. Bush and his colleagues have made groundbreaking discoveries about the pathophysiology of venous disease, challenging traditional classifications and treatment approaches.
Key Takeaways from Dermato-Phlebology:
Rethinking CEAP Classification: The CEAP classification may be inadequate in capturing the complexity of venous disease manifestations in the skin.
Spider Vein Subtypes: Not all spider veins are created equal. Dermato-phlebology reveals distinct subtypes with varying responses to treatment.
Edema and Inflammation: The presence of edema and inflammation in the skin can significantly impact patient symptoms and treatment outcomes.
A Call to Action
Healthcare professionals have a responsibility to stay informed about the latest advancements in venous disease management.
Embrace TIRS: Consider incorporating the TIRS technique into your practice to provide more effective and efficient leg ulcer care.
Explore Dermato-Phlebology: Deepen your understanding of the skin's role in venous disease to optimize patient evaluation and treatment strategies.
Continue Learning: Seek out educational resources, like those provided by Dr. Bush, to expand your knowledge and enhance your skills.
Join the Movement
Let's work together to raise awareness about TIRS and dermato-phlebology. By sharing this knowledge and advocating for better patient care, we can make a real difference in the lives of those suffering from venous leg ulcers.

Ron's original work on TIRS
The targeted application of foam sclerotherapy to the ulcer bed is a brilliant and *life changing* technique. Furthermore, the CEAP classification appears to be faulty in some cases of leg ulcers, by not taking into account "the complexity of venous disease manifestations in the skin". Thank you for this priceless information.
Thank you for your kind feedback. I agree with you!
Wow ,that sounds promising if doctors will start using this procedure ❤❤❤ a lot less time being in torcherous pain.
Thank you. Let's spread the word!
Excellent information and potential help for patients with persistent venous ulcers whom don’t heal with truncal venous ablations
Very deep insight into venous disease pathology
Thank you.
I had ulcer for 4 years multiple surgeries, Came to Southern Asia snd they gave me a red pill 7:51 that closed it, in 30 days, The pill made me sick but It closed the Ulcer and has not been open sense. my ulcar was so bad it infected went sepsis 4 days in hospital,
Thank you

Thank you for your kind feedback 🙂
Great! I always inject around the ulcer if present.
Excellent, thank you for commenting
This is amazing! I did not know this technique until now! I will be incorporating it to my practice! Thank you so much!
Thank you for your feedback. Ron and Peggy Bush have more educational material you may be interested in www.incderm.com/
I have lymphedema and edema and I had ulcers on both legs
I'm sorry to hear that 😞
I broke my ankle 3 ago and following surgery and metal being inserted,i developed a serious infection requiring debridement, intravenous antibiotics and a 7 week stay in hospital,i was then discharged but 3 days later i was rushed back to hospital ,the infection had flared up and once again inravenous antibiotics, a futther lengthy stay in hospital and a further operation to remove metal work.
following discharge i went every month for dressing change and to monitor progress, 6 months later i was told the infection I'd had had been life threatening and sadly osteomyelitis had caused my ankle to crumble,3 yesrs on my leg is still open and has never healed,do you know if i can purchase Oxyband over the counter here in uk,
I don't know the answer to that question. I think you will have to ask the manufacturing company in the United States
Great! Always inject around the ulcer
Yes indeed! You may be interested in the great educational resources Peggy and Ron have assembled www.incderm.com/
Foam. Foam. Foam.
Fight. Fight. Fight.
As you have pointed out on many occasions, only ultrasound guided foam sclerotherapy can tackle the public health issue of venous leg ulceration @vein911
