Abstract 312: Anatomic Runoff Score Predicts Cardiovascular Outcomes in Patients with Lower Extremity Peripheral Artery Disease Session Title: Poster Session III
Conclusions: After adjustment for clinical factors, the LE-PAD anatomic runoff score, age and indication for procedure were the most significant predictors of future cardiovascular morbidity and mortality in a broadly-representative patient population undergoing revascularization for symptomatic PAD. The use of a clinically useful anatomic scoring system, if validated, may assist clinicians in risk-stratifying patients during the course of clinical decision-making.

Abstract 47: Presentation and Outcomes of Women Veterans with Suspected Ischemia and Nonobstructive Coronary Artery Disease: Insights from the VA Clinical Assessment Reporting and Tracking Program. Poster Session I
Conclusion: Between October 2007 and September 2011, 23% of women veterans undergoing catheterization for suspected ischemia had non-obstructive CAD. In contrast to non-VA studies, adverse clinical outcomes and re-hospitalization rates for chest pain were less frequent. These findings may represent systematic differences in treatment and follow-up care of women veterans between VA and non-VA healthcare systems.
