Improvement of quality of life in diabetic patients treated with percutaneous transluminal angioplasty

Abstract: To assess the quality of life (QoL) of treated patients in order to evaluate the success of peripheral transluminal angioplasty (PTA) and correlate physical parameters with clinical progress at 6 months post-PTA.According to TASC II classifications, 69 patients were selected for PTA. Clinical evaluation and diagnostic tests were performed before, after and after 6 months following PTA. The SF-36 QoL questionnaire was added as an additional parameter.Fifty one patients were included in the study. The ankle-brac… Show more

“…15,16,60,[81][82][83][84][85] An analysis of patients undergoing percutaneous transluminal angioplasty demonstrated that SF-36 values significantly increased in patients after percutaneous transluminal angioplasty and exercise. 86 However, other studies showed no change in SF-36 in response to an effective exercise intervention. 42,48,87 Additionally, the SF-36 has been shown to have a moderateto-good association with several Health Utility Indices and therefore may be useful for economic analyses.…”
