Description of intervention(s) / exposure
Treatment: Devices - VenaSealâ„¢ System
Treatment: Devices - Endothermal Ablation (ETA)
Treatment: Surgery - Surgical Stripping
Experimental: Randomized study VenaSealâ„¢ System versus Endothermal Ablation (ETA): VenaSealâ„¢ System - CEAP 2-5 subjects will be randomized to VenaSealâ„¢ System vs. ETA
Active comparator: Randomized study VenaSealâ„¢ System versus Endothermal Ablation (ETA): ETA - CEAP 2-5 subjects will be randomized to VenaSealâ„¢ System vs. ETA
Experimental: Randomized study VenaSealâ„¢ System versus Surgical Stripping: VenaSealâ„¢ System - CEAP 2-5 subjects will be randomized to VenaSealâ„¢ System vs. Surgical Stripping
Active comparator: Randomized study VenaSealâ„¢ System versus Surgical Stripping: Surgical Stripping - CEAP 2-5 subjects will be randomized to VenaSealâ„¢ System vs. Surgical Stripping
Experimental: Single arm Venous Leg Ulcer (VLU) Study: VenaSealâ„¢ System - CEAP 6 active leg ulcer subjects will not be randomized to a comparator, all subjects will be treated with VenaSealâ„¢ System
Treatment: Devices: VenaSealâ„¢ System
The VenaSealâ„¢ System is the non-tumescent, non-thermal, non-sclerosant device that uses a proprietary medical adhesive delivered endovenously to close the vein.
Treatment: Devices: Endothermal Ablation (ETA)
ETA includes EVLA that uses laser or RFA that uses radiofrequency heating to close the vein. Heat is applied in both EVLA and RFA therapies to close the vein.
Subject can be treated with either EVLA or RFA if randomized to ETA arm per site's standard practice.
Treatment: Surgery: Surgical Stripping
Surgical stripping involves stripping (removal) of the diseased vein via surgical procedures.

3. Patient has abnormal pulse exam or ABI <0.8
4. Patient has acute superficial thrombophlebitis
5. Patient requires any non-target vein treatments in the contralateral or ipsilateral limb, or any other surgical procedure up tp 30 days pre-procedure and through 3 months post-procedure
6. Patient has any co-morbid conditions, which in the investigator's opinion may interfere with the patient's compliance with study visits and procedures, or may confound interpretation of study data (e.g., congestive heart failure Class III and IV, non-ambulatory patients, severe hepatic dysfunction, life expectancy < 1 year)
7. IFU contraindications:
* VenaSeal vs. ETA Study: Patient has VenaSealâ„¢ system and/or ETA product's IFU contraindication(s)

8. Patient is non-ambulatory
9. Patient is a female of childbearing potential who may be pregnant or breastfeeding at the time of the index procedure
10. Patient belongs to a vulnerable population per investigator's judgment or patient has any kind of disorder that compromises his/her ability to give written informed consent and/or to comply with study procedures
11. Patient is currently participating in an investigational drug or device study when the data collected could be conflicting or biased due to participation in another study
12. Patient has documented COVID-19 infection currently or within the past 3 months. Patient is not completely recovered from past COVID-19 infection, per physician's discretion.
13. VLU Study: Patient has target ulceration identified to be of non-venous etiology, as confirmed by the independent core laboratory
14. VLU Study: Patient has target circumferential ulceration that cannot be captured in a single photograph (any ulcer curvature around the leg that goes out of sight)
