The present publication was designed to report the results of the questionnaire study concerning various aspects of compression therapy of venous pathology carried out in the framework of the Xth conference of the Association of Phlebologists of Russia (APR). These data are compared with the materials of the analogous questionnaire study undertaken in 2012. It is shown that compression therapy is still regarded by Russian phlebologists as an important indispensable component of specialized phlebological aid. The new tendencies toward practical realization of the basic principles of compression therapy are highlighted that are becoming apparent as a result of recent progress in medicine sciences and real phlebological practice, changes in the treatment strategies, and the development of new minimally invasive methods (in the first place, thermo-obliteration).
