Abstract

Patients with critical limb ischemia and concurrent wounds suffer higher rates of amputation. An ankle brachial index (ABI) is the standard practice for screening peripheral artery disease in patients. Our study goal was to determine if high risk patients who received an earlier ABI were less likely to receive an amputation later in life.
