Research Notes on Peripheral Arterial Disease
Peripheral arterial disease (PAD) is a condition also known as peripheral vascular disease (PVD). It's a condition similar to coronary artery disease (CAD). It effects arteries in the hips and the legs, with swelling from plaque and deposits of fat, clogging the coronary arteries supply to the heart and brain. When someone has PAD, it causes an inflammatory processes leading to stenosis, an embolism or thrombus formation. It causes either acute or chronic ischemia.
