Abstract
The Walt Disney Company gave us “Boy Meets World”; perhaps the authors of this paper are suggesting its time that the “doctor meets world.”1 Surgeons have long used vascular laboratory studies to quantify the impact of peripheral artery disease (PAD), with an ankle-brachial index ≤0.9 diagnostic of PAD.2 Whereas laboratory tests can assess the hemodynamic effects of PAD, they do not provide a picture of what the patient can or cannot do in the real world. More recently, there has been increasing interest in assessing quality of life (QOL).
