Great time learning about PAD and exploring this as a career at #NYEVS23 NY Endovascular Summit Mount Sinai Fuster Heart Hospital #Cardiology
How to approach pts with PAD 1. Clinical presentation 2. Physiologic testing - Rest +/- exercise ABI - Segmental pressures and PVR 3. Anatomical characterization - Aortoiliac: TASC II - Fempop: GLASS - Infrapop: GLASS 4. Tissue loss - WIFI score #NYEVS23 NY Endovascular Summit
How are we doing with medical mgmt of PAD? Poorly. Only 29% of pts have LDLc < 70 and 40% of pts are on no lipid lowering therapy. Antiplatelet, xarelto 2.5 mg BID (COMPASS, VOYAGER PAD), smoking cessation, risk factor mod, exercise program also crucial! #NYEVS23 NY Endovascular Summit
