Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:

To ask Her Majesty's Government what assessment they have made of the efficacy of patient leg ulcer care pathways developed by the Venous Forum of the Royal Society of Medicine.

NHS England is not aware of any assessments of the efficacy of patient leg ulcer care pathways developed by the Venous Forum of the Royal Society of Medicine.

There are plans to develop a national patient leg ulcer care pathway, and the Venous Forum has been invited to join the lower limb workstream to contribute to the development of this pathway.
