Effects of Long‐Term Home Exercise in Participants With Peripheral Artery Disease
Journal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2023 Background This randomized controlled trial compared long‐term changes in peak walking time (PWT) and exercise time‐to‐minimum calf muscle oxygen saturation (StO2) in symptomatic participants with peripheral artery disease following a long‐term home ...

Intermittent claudication [PDF]
Current Treatment Options in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2001 Intermittent claudication is the most common symptom in patients with peripheral arterial disease (PAD). As such, it is mandatory for clinicians to treat both the PAD-specific symptoms (to decrease functional impairment and thereby improve quality- of-life, as well as to decrease rates of amputation) and the underlying systemic atherosclerosis (and ...

Cilostazol for intermittent claudication [PDF]
Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, 2014 Peripheral arterial disease (PAD) affects between 4% and 12% of people aged 55 to 70 years, and 20% of people over 70 years. A common complaint is intermittent claudication (exercise-induced lower limb pain relieved by rest). These patients have a three- to six-fold increase in cardiovascular mortality.
