Objectives
  • Increase the awareness of physicians (general
    practitioners, internists, cardiologists, and
    vascular surgeons) in Saudi Arabia about PAD
  • Educate physicians about the importance of risk
    reduction therapies, in order to close the care,
    knowledge and action gaps.

What is Atherosclerosis?
  • Clogging, narrowing, and hardening of large and
    medium-sized arteries

7
What are the risk factors for Atherosclerosis?
Non-Modifiable Risk Factors Male gender
Advanced age Family history
Modifiable Risk Factors Major

Pathophysiology of Atherothrombosis
Thrombus Formation
Atherosclerosis

Rupture of Fibrous Cap
Erosion of Endothelium
Erosion of Calcium Nodule
Intraplaque Hemorrhage
Atherosclerosis leads to any number of four
possible types of thrombus formation

Clinical Spectrum of Atherosclerosis
  • Cerebrovascular disease
  • Coronary artery disease
  • Renal artery Diseases
  • Visceral arterial disease
  • Peripheral arterial disease
  • Intermittent claudication
  • Critical limb ischemia

10
Atherothrombosis
Can Manifest in Multiple
Vascular Beds
  • Atherothrombosis is a process that includes the
    following clinical consequences
  • Ischemic stroke, MI, and PAD
  • Patients with atherothrombosis have thrombus
    formations that can manifest in multiple vascular
    beds throughout the body

How do patients with PAD present?
Symptomatic
  • Intermittent claudication
  • Critical Limb Ischemia
  • Pain at rest
  • Tissue loss
  • Gangrene

Role of ABI in PAD
  • Confirms the diagnosis of PAD
  • Detects significant PAD in (sedentary)
    asymptomatic patients
  • Used in the differential diagnosis of leg
    symptoms to identify a vascular etiology
  • Identifies patients with reduced limb function
    (inability to walk defined distances or at usual
    walking speed)
  • Provides key information on long-term prognosis
  • A 36-fold increased risk of CV mortality with an
    ABI lt0.90
  • Provides further risk stratification
  • A lower ABI indicating worse prognosis
  • A Framingham risk score between 1020
  • Highly associated with coronary and cerebral
    artery disease

Why it is important to recognize patients
with PAD?
PAD is a marker of systemic atherosclerosis
Patients with either symptomatic or
asymptomatic PAD generally have widespread
arterial disease
22
Peripheral Arterial Disease Prevalence of
Polyvascular disease
The REACH Registry found overlapping
manifestations of disease in patients with CAD,
CVD, and PAD
18.3 of patients in the REACH Registry did not
have manifestations of atherothrombosis, but
were included based on risk factors
sanofi-aventis and Bristol-Myers Squibb provide
funding for the REACH Registry. The REACH
Registry includes patients with conditions for
which clopidogrel may not be indicated. Bhatt DL
et al. JAMA. 2006295180-189.
23
Long term Risk of MI Stroke
PAD places individuals at high short term risk
of MI, Stroke Death

Survival of Patients With PAD

Relationship Between ABI and Fatal and Non-fatal
CV events
The lower the ABI the higher the 5-year risk of a
cardiovascular event

29
All Cause Mortality as a Function of Baseline ABI
There appears to be an inverse correlation
between mortality and ABI
  • PAD patients with an ABI 0.90 are at increased
    risk for cardiovascular events and all cause
    mortality as ABI decreases
  • Patients with an ABI gt1.40 have underlying
    diseases, such as diabetes, renal insufficiency
    or other diseases that cause vascular
    calcification, or the tibial vessels at the ankle
    to become non-compressible

Clopidogrel Better
CAPRIE primary combined end point (myocardial
infarction, ischemic stroke, vascular death) RRR
8.7 (P0.045) for patients with PAD,
post-myocardial infarction, post-ischemic stroke.
CAPRIE subgroup analysis for PAD patients the
secondary end point, myocardial infarction, was
reduced by 23.8 (RRR). Since the CAPRIE Trial
was not powered to evaluate the efficacy of
individual sub-groups, it is not clear whether
the differences in RRR across qualifying
conditions are real or a result of chance.

45
Antihypertensive Therapy
Antihypertensive therapy should be administered
to hypertensive patients with lower extremity PAD
to a goal of less than 140/90 mmHg
(non-diabetics) or less than 130/80 mm/Hg
(diabetics and individuals with chronic renal
disease) to reduce the risk of myocardial
infarction, stroke, congestive heart failure, and
cardiovascular death.

Management of Patients With Peripheral Arterial
Disease. J Am Coll Cardiol. 2006.

Lipid Lowering Therapy
  • Cholesterol Treatment Trialists Coolaborators
    Meta-analysis data from 90 056 participants in 14
    randomized trials of statins
  • 21 reduction for adverse cardiovascular events,
    including myocardial infarction, stroke, or
    vascular death
  • (Lancet 2005 3661267-78)

Treatment with an HMG coenzyme-A reductase
inhibitor (statin) medication is indicated for
all patients with peripheral arterial disease to
achieve a target LDL cholesterol of less than 100
mg/dl.
Adapted from ACC/AHA Guidelines for the
Management of Patients With Peripheral Arterial
Disease. J Am Coll Cardiol. 2006.
47
Diabetes Therapies
Treatment of diabetes in individuals with lower
extremity PAD by administration of glucose
control therapies to reduce the hemoglobin A1C to
less than 7 can be effective to reduce
microvascular complications and potentially
improve cardiovascular outcomes.
Adapted from ACC/AHA Guidelines for the
Management of Patients With Peripheral Arterial
Disease. J Am Coll Cardiol. 2006.
48
ACE inhibitors
  • The HOPE study involved 9297 AS patients.
  • 25 reduction for adverse cardiovascular events,
    including myocardial infarction, stroke, or
    vascular death

ACE inhibitors is indicated to reduce the risk
of myocardial infarction, stroke, or vascular
death in individuals with atherosclerotic lower
extremity PAD.

Take home message
  • PAD is a marker for systemic atherosclerosis
  • PAD is associated with increased risk of
    cardiovascular mortality and morbidity
  • Majority of patients with PAD are asymptomatic
  • Individuals with atherosclerotic risk factors
    should be screened for PAD (ABI measurement)
  • Proven risk reduction therapy should be
    prescribed for patients with PAD
