What is Peripheral Artery Disease (PAD)?
Peripheral Artery Disease (PAD) is a condition caused by the narrowing or blockage of arteries, typically in the legs, due to a buildup of fatty deposits (atherosclerosis). This restricts blood flow to the extremities, leading to symptoms such as:
- Leg pain or cramping during walking (claudication)
- Numbness or weakness in the legs
- Slow-healing wounds on the feet or legs
- Cold or discolored skin in the affected areas
Comprehensive PAD Diagnosis
At Surgical Associates Chartered, we use state-of-the-art diagnostic tools to evaluate PAD, including:
Ankle-Brachial Index (ABI): A simple, non-invasive test comparing blood pressure in the ankle and arm.
Ultrasound Imaging: To visualize blood flow and identify blockages.
Angiography: For detailed imaging of your arteries.
Personalized PAD Treatment Options
We understand that every patient is unique. Our team creates personalized treatment plans to address your specific needs, which may include:
Lifestyle Modifications
- Quitting smoking
- Healthy diet changes
- Regular exercise to improve circulation
Advanced Interventional and Surgical Options
- Angioplasty and Stenting: Minimally invasive procedures to open narrowed arteries and improve blood flow.
- Bypass Surgery: Creating a new pathway around blocked arteries to restore circulation.
- Endarterectomy: Surgical removal of plaque buildup from artery walls.
