Ambulatory Status Over Time after Revascularization in Patients with Chronic Limb-Threatening Ischemia

CONCLUSION: Mobility in the overall population gradually decreased, whereas the number of deceased patients increased. Advanced age, impaired mobility before CLTI onset and at revascularization, renal failure on dialysis, and WIfI stage 4 were associated with ambulation loss at almost all points after revascularization.PMID:34039832 | DOI:10.5551/jat.62892
