Peripheral Arterial Disease: Clinical Diagnosis • Must have a high index of suspicion • Must perform a thorough physicial examination • Determine the global atherosclerotic burden • Utilize the vascular diagnostic laboratory • Magnetic resonance angiography is rapidly replacing invasive testing • Reserve arteriography for cases requiring intervention TCT 2005
Vascular Review of Systems • Any exertional limitation of the lower extremity muscles or any history of walking impairment (fatigue, numbness, aching, or pain • Any poorly healing or non healing of the legs or feet • Any pain at rest localized at the lower leg or foot and its association with the upright or recumbent positions • Postprandial abdominal pain that reproducibly is provoked by eating and is associated with weight loss • Family history of a first-degree relative with Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm ACC/AHA Guidelines
Vascular Physical Examination • Measurement of blood pressure in both arm and notation of any interarm assymetry • Palpation of the carotid pulses and notation of the carotid upstroke and amplitude and presence of bruits • Auscultation of the abdomen and flank for bruits • Palpation of the pulses at the brachial, radial ulnar, femoral, popliteal, dorsalis pedis, and posterior tibial sites. Performance of Allen’s test when knowledge of hand perfusion is needed • Auscultation of both femoral ateries for the presence of bruits • Pulse intensity should be recorded numerically: 0, absent; 1, diminished; 2, normal; 3, bounding • Additional findings: distal hair loss, trophic sin changes hypertrophic nails ACC/AHA Guidelines

Signs of PAD • Decreased or absent pulses • Bruits • Muscle atrophy • Pallor of feet with elevation • Dependent rubor • Signs of chronic ischemia: Hair loss, thickened nails, smooth & shiny skin, coolness, pallor or cyanosis

Individuals at Risk for Lower-extremity Peripheral Arterial Disease • Age less than 50 years, with diabetes and one other atherosclerosis risk factor (smoking, dyslipidemia, hypertension, or hyperhomocysteinemia) • Age 50 to 69 years and history of smoking or diabetes • Age 70 years and older • Leg symptoms with exertion (suggestive of claudication) or ischemic rest pain • Abnormal lower extremity pulse examination • Known atherosclerotic coronary, carotid, or renal artery disease ACC/AHA Guidelines

Pathophysiology of Intermittent Claudication Intermittent claudication is associated with: • Metabolic abnormalities stemming from reduced blood flow and O2 delivery1 • Significant reduction (50%) in muscle fibers compared with controls2 • Smaller type I and II muscle fibers with greater arterial ischemia2 • Hyperplastic mitochondria and demyelination of nerve fibers3 1 Lundgren et al Am J Physiol. 1988;255:H1156-64. 2 Hedberg et al. Eur Vasc Surg. 1989;3:315-22. 3 Farinon et al. Clin Neuropathol 1984;3:240-52.
PAD Symptom Severity • Maximal walking speed • Normal = 3-4 mph • PAD = 1-2 mph • Maximal walking distance • Normal = unlimited • PAD, 31% difficulty walking in home • PAD, 66% difficulty walking 1/2 block • Peak VO2 • PAD reduced 50% (NYHA class III CHF) Otsuka data set, J Appl Physiol 1992;73:346

Diagnostic Methods • Ankle-and Toes – Brachial Indices, segmental pressure examination • Pulse volume recording • Continuous wave doppler ultrasound • Treadmill exercise testing with and without ABI assessments and 6 minute walk test • Duplex ultrasound • Computed tomographic angiography • Magnetic resonance angiography • Contrast angiography Hirsh et al Circulation 2006; 113(11): e463-654 ACC/AHA Guidelines

Diagnostic Algorithm for PDA History, Physical examination Suggestive of PDA? Search for alternate diagnosis NO Yes Ankle-Brachial Index >0.9 >1.30 <0.9 • Vascular Lab Referral • Segmental pressures, PVR • Graded treadmill test Still suspicious? Anatomic Assessment: DUS, MRA, CTA PAD TCT 2005
Diagnosis of asymptomatic PAD and Atypical Leg Pain Evaluate other causes of leg symptoms Confirmation of PAD diagnosis ACC/AHA Guidelines
Diagnosis of Claudication Classic claudication symptoms: Muscle fatigue, cramping, or pain that reproducibly begins during exercise and that promptly resolves with rest Chart document the history of walking impairment and specific lifestyle limitations Document pulse examination Exercise ABI (TBI, segmental pressure, or duplex ultrasound examination) ABI >0.90 ABI ABI less than or equal to 0.90 Abnormal results Normal results No PAD or consider arterial entrapment syndromes Confirmed PAD diagnosis ACC/AHA Guidelines
Diagnosis of Acute Limb Ischemia Rapid or sudden decrease in limb perfusion threatens tissue viability History and physical examination; determine time of onset of symptoms Emergent assessment of severity of ischemia: Loss of pulses Loss of motor and sensory function Vascular laboratory assessment ABI, TBI, or duplex ultrasound • Severe PAD documented: • ABI less than 0.4 • Flat PVR waveform • Absent pedal flow Nor or minimal PAD Consider and evaluate source of: atheroembolism, thromboembolism or phlegmasia cerulea dolens ACC/AHA Guidelines
Diagnosis of Critical Limb Ischemia Chronic Symptoms: Ischemic rest pain, gangrene, nonhealing wound Ischemic etiology must be established promptly: By examination and objective vascular studies Implication: Impending limb loss • History and physical examination: • Document lower extremity pulses • Document presence of ulcers or infection Assess factor that may contribute to limb risk: diabetes, neuropathy, chronic renal failure, infection ABI, TBI, or duplex ultrasound Severe lower extremity PAD ABI less than 0.4; flat PVR waveform; absent pedal flow No or minimal atherosclerotic arterial occlusive disease ACC/AHA Guidelines
The Ankle-Brachial Index • The resting ABI should be used to stablish the lower extremity PAD diagnosis in patients with suspected lower extremity PAD • Exertional leg symptoms • Non healing wounds • 70 years and older or 50 years and older with history of smoking or diabetes • ABI should be measured in both legs in all new patients with PAD of any severity to confirm the diagnosis and establish a baseline Hirsh et al Circulation 2006; 113(11): e463-654 ACC/AHA Guidelines
The Ankle-Brachial Index • The toe-brachial index should be used to establish the lower extremity PAD diagnosis in patients in whom lower extremity PAD is clinically suspected but in whom the ABI test is not reliable due to noncompressible vessels (advance age or diabetes) • Leg segmental pressure measurements are useful to establish the lower extremity PAD diagnosis when anatomic localization of lower extremity PAD is required to create a therapeutic plan Hirsh et al Circulation 2006; 113(11): e463-654 ACC/AHA Guidelines
