Abstract
The need of the study is to predict the healing of venous ulcers, identify the patients who actually need surgical intervention and to predict the average healing time required for venous ulcer. Because venous ulcer is a big burden to the patient. Furthermore the ulcer often recurs when the patient returns home and resume lifestyle, so we are using this scoring system to categorize the patient actually need surgical intervention for patients coming to Sri Siddhartha Medical College Hospital.
