Preliminary questions [33126]

33127

there is some evidence that infective or non-infective vasculitis may be a factor in the development or worsening of the condition under consideration.

33128 the veteran has suffered from infective or non-infective vasculitis of the affected segment of the artery at some time.

33129

the veteran suffered from infective or non-infective vasculitis of the affected segment of the artery as a consequence of an illness or injury which is identifiable.

33130the veteran has established the causal connection between infective or non-infective vasculitis and VEA service for carotid arterial disease.

33137

as a consequence of the identified illness or injury, the veteran suffered from infective or non-infective vasculitis of the affected segment of the artery at the time of the clinical onset of the condition under consideration.

33131the veteran has established the causal connection between infective or non-infective vasculitis and VEA service for the clinical onset of carotid arterial disease.

33133the veteran has established the causal connection between infective or non-infective vasculitis and operational service for the clinical onset of carotid arterial disease.

or

33134the veteran has established the causal connection between infective or non-infective vasculitis and eligible service for the clinical onset of carotid arterial disease.

or

7334

the clinical onset of the condition under consideration occurred after the end of the veteran's last period of VEA service.

7335

the condition under consideration permanently worsened.

33138

as a consequence of the identified illness or injury, the veteran suffered from infective or non-infective vasculitis of the affected segment of the artery at the time of the clinical worsening of the condition under consideration.

33132the veteran has established the causal connection between infective or non-infective vasculitis and VEA service for the clinical worsening of carotid arterial disease.

33135the veteran has established the causal connection between infective or non-infective vasculitis and operational service for the clinical worsening of carotid arterial disease.

or

33136the veteran has established the causal connection between infective or non-infective vasculitis and eligible service for the clinical worsening of carotid arterial disease.

Clinical onset and operational service [33133]

33139the identified illness or injury, which caused the infective or non-infective vasculitis of the affected segment of the artery, is causally related to operational service.

Clinical onset and eligible service [33134]

33140the identified illness or injury, which caused the infective or non-infective vasculitis of the affected segment of the artery, is causally related to eligible service.

Clinical worsening and operational service [33135]

33139the identified illness or injury, which caused the infective or non-infective vasculitis of the affected segment of the artery, is causally related to operational service.

33141

the clinical onset of the condition under consideration occurred prior to that part of operational service to which the identified illness or injury, which caused the infective or non-infective vasculitis of the affected segment of the artery, is causally related.

Clinical worsening and eligible service [33136]

33140the identified illness or injury, which caused the infective or non-infective vasculitis of the affected segment of the artery, is causally related to eligible service.

33142

the clinical onset of the condition under consideration occurred prior to that part of eligible service to which the identified illness or injury, which caused the infective or non-infective vasculitis of the affected segment of the artery, is causally related.
