Management of Vascular Disorders in Cardiovascular Practice
Although cardiovascular disease includes common and possibly life-threatening disorders, such as peripheral artery disease (PAD), venous thromboembolism (VTE), aortic aneurysm, cerebrovascular disease, and others, peripheral vascular diseases are often underdiagnosed and undertreated. Individuals with polyvascular disease (ie, atherosclerosis in multiple arterial beds) are at higher risk of major adverse events and mortality than patients with coronary artery disease or peripheral vascular disease alone.
