Peripheral Arterial Disease
and Claudication


Peripheral Arterial Disease (PAD)
A disorder caused by atherosclerosis that
limits blood flow to the limbs
Claudication
A symptom of PAD characterized by pain,
aching, or fatigue in working skeletal
muscles. Claudication arises when there is
insufficient blood flow to meet the metabolic
demands in leg muscles of ambulating
patients
New PAD Guidelines
 Enhanced quality of patient care
 Increased recognition of the importance of
atherosclerotic lower extremity PAD:
– Prevalence
– Cardiovascular risk
– Quality of life
 Improved ability to detect and treat renal artery
disease
 Improved ability to detect and treat AAA
 The evidence base has become increasingly robust,
so that a data-driven care guideline is now possible
Defining a Population “At Risk” for
Lower Extremity PAD

Age less than 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 and older



Leg symptoms with exertion (suggestive of
claudication) or ischemic rest pain
Abnormal lower extremity pulse examination

artery disease

Clinical Assessment of
Peripheral Arterial Disease
Components of Clinical
Assessment

Complete history
– Risk factor assessment
– Activity assessment
Review of medications
 Physical examination

– Inspection of lower extremities
– Pulse exam
Questions for Patients
 Do you develop discomfort in your legs
when you walk?
– Cramping, aching, fatigue
 Do you get this pain when you are sitting
standing, or lying?
 Do symptoms only start when you walk?
 Does the discomfort always occur at about
the same distance?
 Do symptoms resolve once you stop
walking?

Note: 0-4 scale, where 0 = absent, 2 = Diminished, 4 = Normal Limits
The Ankle-Brachial Index (ABI)




The first diagnostic assessment that
should be done to evaluate a patient for
PAD after a pulse exam in the presence of
risk factors or if claudication is suspected.
Inexpensive, accurate and can be done in
the primary care setting
The ABI is 95% sensitive and 99% specific
for PAD
Predicts limb survival, potential for wound
healing, and mortality
The Ankle-Brachial Index (ABI)

Indicated
– In the absence of palpable pulses,
or if pulses are diminished
– In the presence or suspicion of
claudication, foot pain at rest, or a
non-healing foot ulcer
– Age greater than 70 years of age,
>50 years with risk factors
(diabetes, smoking)
Concept of ABI
The systolic blood pressure in the leg should be
approximately the same as the systolic blood pressure
in the arm.
Therefore, the
ratio of systolic
blood pressure in
the leg vs the arm
should be
approximately 1
or slightly higher.
Leg pressure
÷
Arm pressure
ABI has been found to be 95% sensitive and 99%
specific for angiographically diagnosed PAD.

Understanding the ABI




Performed with patient resting in
supine position
All pressures are measured with a
arterial Doppler and appropriately
sized blood pressure cuff
Both brachial pressures are measured
Ankle pressures are measured using
the posterior tibial and/or dorsalis
pedis arteries
Measuring the Ankle-Brachial Index (ABI)
Step 1: Gather Equipment Needed
Equipment needed:
1. Blood Pressure
Cuff
2. Hand-held 5-10
MHz Doppler
probe
3. Ultrasound Gel
American Diabetes Association. Diabetes Care 2003: 26; 3333–3341.
Measuring the Ankle-Brachial Index
(ABI)
Step 2: Position the Patient
Place patient
in supine
position for
5 – 10 minutes
minutes
American Diabetes Association. Diabetes Care 2003: 26; 3333–3341.
Measuring the Ankle-Brachial Index (ABI)
Step 3: Measure the Brachial Blood
Pressure
1. Place the blood pressure cuff
on the arm above the elbow.
2. Apply gel to the skin surface.
3. Place the Doppler probe over
the brachial pulse
4. Inflate the cuff to approx. 20
mm/hg above the point where
systolic sounds are no longer
heard.
5. Deflate the cuff slowly until
the arterial signal returns
(systolic pressure)
6. Repeat in the other arm
American Diabetes Association. Diabetes Care 2003: 26; 3333–3341.
Measuring the Ankle-Brachial Index
(ABI)
Step 4: Position the Cuff Above the Ankle
Place blood
pressure cuff
just above the
ankle of one leg,
apply gel over
the area of the
dorsalis pedis
artery
Dormandy JA et al. J Vasc Surg. 2000;31:S1-S296.
Measuring the Ankle-Brachial Index (ABI)
Step 5: Measure the Pressure in the Dorsalis
Pedis Artery
1. Place Doppler probe
over the dorsalis
pedis artery; inflate
the cuff
2. Deflate the cuff; when
the return of blood
flow is detected,
record this as the
systolic pressure of
the DP artery of that
leg
Dormandy JA et al. J Vasc Surg. 2000;31:S1-S296.
Measuring the Ankle-Brachial Index (ABI)
Step 6: Measure the Pressure in the
Posterior Tibial Artery
1. Place gel and
Doppler probe over
the posterior tibial
artery (below the
cuff)
2. Measure the
pressure, record as
posterior tibial
pressure for that
leg
Dormandy JA et al. J Vasc Surg. 2000;31:S1-S296.
Measuring the Ankle-Brachial Index (ABI)
Step 7: Repeat the Process in the
Opposite Leg
Repeat the same
process in the
other leg and
record the
pressures of the
dorsalis pedis
and posterior
tibial arteries
Dormandy JA et al. J Vasc Surg. 2000;31:S1-S296.

diabetics and elderly individuals

Referring to the Vascular Lab
Caveats for referral to vascular lab
• Assessment of the location and severity is
desired
• Patients with poorly compressible vessels
• Normal ABI where there is high suspicion of
PAD
Vascular Lab Evaluation
• Segmental pressures
• Pulse volume recordings
• Treadmill

Indications for Referral
for Vascular Specialty Care


Summary




PAD is a common atherosclerotic disease
associated with risk of cardiovascular ischemic
events and significant functional disability
PAD can be effectively assessed in the primary
care setting by primary care nurses
The ankle brachial index is an effective and
efficient measurement tool for diagnosis of PAD
Early detection of PAD allows for appropriate
disease management and decreased likelihood of
ischemic events and disease progression
