Is there a preferred way to transcribe venostasis/venous stasis?  I've always typed venostatis (in reference to changes in the extremity).  QA person saying that venostasis is "treatment of CHF by compression proximal veins of the extremities with tourniquets" taken from Stedman's dictionary...  your thoughts?  Thank you!

venous stasis vs venostasis.
Subject: venous stasis vs venostasis.

Both are correct. "o" is the combining form and thus acceptable as venostasis. Some dictators will use the combined form and some will use two separate words, I go with what the dictator says.

Ven = venous
stasis = cessation/impairment of flow thus ven "o" statis.
