Evidence-Based Clinical Care: Treatment of Vascular Disease

Course overview

Peripheral arterial disease (PAD) is a growing public health concern that remains underdiagnosed and undertreated. In its most severe form, critical limb ischemia, PAD leads to significant morbidity through limb amputation and is strongly associated with increased mortality due to its link with coronary and cerebrovascular disease. In this webinar, Constantino S. Peña, M.D., will review updated guideline-directed strategies for PAD management, including patient selection, noninvasive arterial testing protocols, diagnostic criteria for classifying disease severity and timely communication of results to improve patient outcomes.
