As interventional cardiologists, we know that not all #PAD patients are the same.
Patients with chronic limb-threatening ischemia often require urgent, limb-saving intervention. That’s why clinical context matters when evaluating treatment patterns, outcomes, and resource utilization.
SCAI and four partner societies have released a joint statement emphasizing the importance of guideline-concordant care, patient access, and evidence-based policymaking.
