Abstract
Background:Although the presence, extent, and severity of obstruction in patients with lower extremity peripheral artery disease (LE-PAD) affect their clinical care, it is not known if these factors are associated with future cardiovascular endpoints. We empirically created an anatomic runoff score (ARS) that was based on the severity of stenosis of each lower extremity segment, and determined its association with clinical outcomes.
