%X Peripheral arterial disease is a system wide disease process, usually manifesting itself in lower limb claudication or critical limb ischaemia. Great effort is made to reduce symptoms for claudication and prevent limb loss in patients with critical limb ischaemia. All patients have a higher cardiovascular risk profile, and risk factor modulation is key in reducing this and preventing early cardiovascular related mortality.
