Abstract
METHODS: This was a prospective cohort study of PAD patients (N=100) presenting to a vascular surgery clinic. All patients received ABIs and brachial artery flow-mediated, endothelium-dependent, vasodilation (FMD) to assess arterial EF. PAD severity was assessed by the clinical Rutherford score. Demographic, biochemical and physiologic parameters were entered into regression equations to determine association with disease severity.
