Individuals “At Risk” for Lower Extremity PAD Based on the epidemiologic evidence, an “at risk” population for PAD can be defined as: • Age <50 years with diabetes, and one additional risk factor (e.g., smoking, dyslipidemia, hypertension, or hyperhomocysteinemia) • Age 50 to 69 years and history of smoking or diabetes • Age ≥70 years • Leg symptoms with exertion (suggestive of claudication) or ischemic rest pain • Abnormallower extremity pulse examination • Known atherosclerotic coronary, carotid, or renal artery disease ACC/AHA PAD Guidelines 2011

Take Home Message • PAD is a common, yet serious, disease that raises the risk of heart attack and stroke • PAD is not always symptomatic and may be silent in a vast majority of patients • Evaluation of PAD should be part of routine physical examination • Appropriate and timely interventions (medical & revascularization) can significantly improve cardiovascular outcomes
