Abstract

Critical limb ischemia (CLI) is a common health problem among adults. CLI is a progressive type of peripheral artery disease associated with non-healing ulceration and ischemic pain at rest. Patients with CLI may suffer from gangrene, a consequence of arterial occlusive disease. Patients with CLI have a high-risk of developing chronic health issues such as hyperlipidemia, renal failure, hypertension, and diabetes mellitus. The health and well-being of patients with CLI is low and heterogeneously complex. Patients with CLI cope with complex and chronic health issues that often require appropriate treatment and management. The newly developed Limflow system is the promising future for vascular interventions in CLI patients.
