Intermittent claudication [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent 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 ...

Absence of Long-term Benefit of Revascularization in Patients With Intermittent Claudication: Five-Year Results From the IRONIC Randomized Controlled Trial

open access: yesJournal of Vascular Surgery, 2020
Background: The long-term benefit of revascularization for intermittent claudication is poorly understood. The aim of this study was to investigate the long-term effectiveness and cost-effectiveness compared with a noninvasive approach.

Prediction of the effect of training on the walking tolerance in patients with intermittent claudication.

open access: yesScandinavian Journal of Rehabilitation Medicine, 2020
The possibility of predicting the effect of training on the walking tolerance in intermittent claudication has been studied. After three months of supervised training in 54 patients, the maximal walking distance (MWD) increased by 67% and the painfree ...

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

open access: yes, 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.
