Revascularization Enhances Walking Dynamics in Patients with Peripheral Artery Disease
Applied MechanicsBlocked or narrowed arteries restrict blood flow to the lower limbs, commonly leading to peripheral artery disease (PAD). Patients with PAD have been shown to have increased gait variability, which may contribute to higher rates of falls and worsen ...

Intermittent Claudication [PDF]
Circulation, 1955 The diagnosis and therapy of intermittent claudication are critically reviewed. A detailed, concrete and positive program is described whereby every physician can effectively treat patients with intermittent claudication without recourse to intricate diagnostic or therapeutic techniques. The value of this program is illustrated with four case reports.
