Gait pattern in patients with peripheral artery disease
Background The aim of the present paper is to assess the gait pattern of patients with Peripheral Artery Disease (PAD). A more specific aim is to compare the gait pattern of PAD patients before and after the appearance of intermittent claudication ...

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