WHAT IS POVD?

--- Content provided by​ FirstRanker.com ---



A Clinical disorder characterised by stenosis or


--- Content provided by FirstRanker.com ---

occlusion of the arteries of periphery especially those


supplying limbs.

--- Content provided by​ FirstRanker.com ---


Why are we so much concerned about POVD?


Peripheral artery disease has been

--- Content provided by⁠ FirstRanker.com ---



estimated to affect about 20%


--- Content provided by⁠ FirstRanker.com ---

individuals aged 55 to 75 years


Only 25% present with symptoms, most common

--- Content provided by FirstRanker.com ---


of which is Intermittent Claudication.


1-2% of pts with IC progress to point where

--- Content provided by⁠ FirstRanker.com ---



amputation or revascularisation is required.

  • Mortality rate of people with IC is 2-3 times higher than general population.
  • --- Content provided by⁠ FirstRanker.com ---


  • Death-- due to MI or stroke- means- IC nearly always occur in association with


    widespread atherosclerosis.
