Peripheral arterial disease (PAD) affects 15% of the Australian population and is a powerful and serious predictor of cardiovascular mortality yet continues to be under-recognised and undertreated. Diagnosis is simple and management is centred upon symptom relief and risk minimisation.

Current Treatment Options in Cardiovascular Medicine, 1999
Risk factors for atherosclerosis should be identified and reduced in all patients who have peripheral arterial disease. Cessation of smoking, strict control of diabetes and hypertension, and aggressive reduction in low-density lipoprotein cholesterol level result in a slowdown of disease progression and a reduction in cardiovascular events.

Peripheral arterial diseases are common problems because atherosclerosis, the most common cause of both occlusive peripheral arterial disease and aneurysmal disease, is a feature of an aging population. The less common types of occlusive peripheral arterial disease--the vasospastic disorders and the arteritides--although frequently not addressed to any

Lower extremity peripheral arterial disease (PAD) most frequently presents with pain during ambulation, which is known as "intermittent claudication". Some relief of symptoms is possible with exercise, pharmacotherapy, and cessation of smoking.

Postgraduate Medicine, 1965
Mercury strain-gauge plethysmography is a simple, reliable and relatively inexpensive technic for office diagnosis and evaluation of patients with peripheral arterial disease. This method also can be applied to study of smaller arteries and sympathetic nervous system activity and evaluation of diabetic patients with peripheral neuropathy.

Antioxidants in Peripheral Arterial Disease
Current Drug Target -Cardiovascular & Hematological Disorders, 2004Peripheral arterial disease (PAD) is an important manifestation of systemic atherosclerosis that is characterized by obstruction of the arteries in the lower limbs. Experimental and epidemiological studies suggest a key role for oxidative stress in initiation and progression of the atherosclerotic process.

co m The last decade has seen a tremendous surge of interest in peripheral arterial disease (PAD). The prevalence of multiple risk factors, chronic nature of disease, the nonspecificity of symptoms, and lackof adequate treatment optionshaveall contributed to the large burden of disease, which is frequently unrecognized.

Arterial Stiffness and Peripheral Arterial Disease
2006Of the atherosclerotic diseases, peripheral arterial disease is the most characterized by its association with systolic hypertension, increased arterial stiffness and disturbed wave reflection. This disease raises the question to which extent sclerosis in 'atherosclerosis' is necessary per se to cause an increase in systolic blood pressure.
