A biomechanical perspective on walking in patients with peripheral artery disease

Abstract: The most common symptom of peripheral artery disease (PAD) is intermittent claudication, which consists of debilitating leg pain during walking. In clinical settings, the presence of PAD is often noninvasively evaluated using the ankle–brachial index and imaging of the arterial supply. Furthermore, various questionnaires and functional tests are commonly used to measure the severity and negative effect of PAD on quality of life. However, these evaluations only provide information on vascular insufficiency and … Show more

“… 43 Extensive evidence also supports both the predictive and prognostic value of abnormal gait characteristics for these two conditions. 44 , 45 In contrast, cardiovascular conditions such as CAD appeared to be more closely associated with conventional clinical variables that are more often considered as traditional ASCVD risk factors. This observation, to some degree, aligns with our clinical understanding that unless significant ischaemic symptoms manifest during physical exertion, gait-related changes may not be as apparent as those seen in PAD or HF.…”
