Exercise for intermittent claudication.

Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, 2017
BACKGROUND Exercise programmes are a relatively inexpensive, low-risk option compared with other, more invasive therapies for treatment of leg pain on walking (intermittent claudication (IC)). This is the fourth update of a review first published in 1998.

Effect of supervised exercise on physical function and balance in patients with intermittent claudication [PDF]

, 2014
Background The aim of the study was to identify whether a standard supervised exercise programme (SEP) for patients with intermittent claudication improved specific measures of functional performance including balance. Methods A prospective observational

Silence of the limbs: pharmacological symptomatic treatment of intermittent claudication [PDF]

, 2010
Several oral "vasoactive" drugs claim to increase walking capacity in patients with intermittent claudication (IC). Naftidrofuryl, cilostazol, buflomedil, and pentoxifylline are the most studied molecules.

Functional claudication distance: a reliable and valid measurement to assess functional limitation in patients with intermittent claudication

BMC Cardiovascular Disorders, 2009
Background Disease severity and functional impairment in patients with intermittent claudication is usually quantified by the measurement of pain-free walking distance (intermittent claudication distance, ICD) and maximal walking distance (absolute ...

Supervised exercise therapy versus home-based exercise therapy versus walking advice for intermittent claudication.

Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, 2018
BACKGROUND Although supervised exercise therapy (SET) provides significant symptomatic benefit for patients with intermittent claudication (IC), it remains an underutilized tool.

Pathophysiology of Intermittent Claudication in Peripheral Artery Disease.

Circulation Journal, 2017
Peripheral artery disease (PAD) affects more than 200 million adults worldwide. Patients with lower extremity PAD have a heightened risk for cardiovascular events because of the systemic nature of atherosclerosis, and benefit from treatment with risk ...

Physical Activity Levels in Peripheral Artery Disease Patients [PDF]

, 2019
BACKGROUND: Increases in daily physical activity levels is recommended for patients with peripheral artery disease (PAD). However, despite this recommendation, little is known about the physical activity patterns of PAD patients.
