Leitlinie^[*]: Phlebologischer Kompressionsverband

Leitlinien sind systematisch erarbeitete Empfehlungen, um Kliniker und Praktiker bei Entscheidungen über die angemessene Patientenversorgung im Rahmen spezifischer klinischer Umstände zu unterstützen. Leitlinien gelten für so genannte Standard-situationen. Sie berücksichtigen aktuelle, zu den entsprechenden Fragestellungen verfüg-bare wissenschaftliche Erkenntnisse. Leitlinien bedürfen einer ständigen Überprüfung und eventuell der Änderung auf Basis des wissenschaftlichen Erkenntnisstandes und der Praktikabilität in der täglichen Praxis. Durch die Leitlinien soll die ärztliche Methodenfreiheit nicht eingeschränkt werden. Ihre Beachtung garantiert nicht in jedem Fall den diagnostischen und therapeutischen Erfolg. Leitlinien erheben keinen Anspruch auf Vollständigkeit. Die Entschei-dung über die Angemessenheit der zu ergreifenden Maßnahmen trifft der Arzt oder die Ärztin unter Berücksichtigung der individuellen Problematik.
