Questions
• Current situation in management of patients with PAD
• Less intensive treatment of risk factors in patients with PAD
• Need of improved awareness, detection and treatment of PAD
• On-going programm of the Czech Soc. of Angiology
![Page 3: Problems in management of patients with PAOD K.Roztocil IKEM, Prague 18 Eurochap Congress of the IUA and XIX Congress of the MLAVS, Palermo, October 24-27,](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062511/551be7a0550346b9588b612d/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Current situation :
• Cca 10.000 patients with PAD in a population of 100.000 inhabitants either symptomatic (in 1/3) or asymptomatic (in 2/3 of cases)
• Symptomatic patients managed by : • vascular surgeons• interventional radiologists• vascular physicians-angiologists • event. other medical branches• Asymptomatic patients : in last year increased attention by
• angiologists• primary care physicians

Revascularization proceduresduring last 3 decades enormous increase of numbers
J.Vasc.Surg 2009, 50, 54-60
![Page 5: Problems in management of patients with PAOD K.Roztocil IKEM, Prague 18 Eurochap Congress of the IUA and XIX Congress of the MLAVS, Palermo, October 24-27,](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062511/551be7a0550346b9588b612d/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Increase of revascularization
• Registry of open vascular surgery and endovascular interventions : in CZ altogether cca 200 per 100.000 inhabitants ( in 2008: surgery 47, endovascular 150)
• Increasing number of revascularization represents only small portion of overall patients with PAD
• up to 98% of patients expected in population obtained non-surgical or non-interventional therapy or no therapy because of missed diagnosis
![Page 6: Problems in management of patients with PAOD K.Roztocil IKEM, Prague 18 Eurochap Congress of the IUA and XIX Congress of the MLAVS, Palermo, October 24-27,](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062511/551be7a0550346b9588b612d/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Vascular specialists care :
Discrepancy :• While surgical vascular service (for 2% of
patients) is more or less created, with increasing numbers of revascularizations, there is insufficiency of vascular internists care (for 98% of patients)
![Page 7: Problems in management of patients with PAOD K.Roztocil IKEM, Prague 18 Eurochap Congress of the IUA and XIX Congress of the MLAVS, Palermo, October 24-27,](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062511/551be7a0550346b9588b612d/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Insufficient angiology-vascular medicine :
• Angiology-vascular medicine started to establish with a delay in comparison with other specialities
• in limited number of countries• Developing branch of internal medicine• Vascular internists network not fully created,
neither in countries with recognized angiology
![Page 8: Problems in management of patients with PAOD K.Roztocil IKEM, Prague 18 Eurochap Congress of the IUA and XIX Congress of the MLAVS, Palermo, October 24-27,](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062511/551be7a0550346b9588b612d/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Concept of angiology/vascular medicine in the CZ
• Structure of angiological care :• 1. Outpatients angiological settings –
expected 2-4 per 100.000 inhabitants (at present less than 1)
• 2. Angiological centres – University Teaching Hospitals, Regional hosp.
• Expected 1-2 centers per 1 milion of inhabitants – (10-20) at present 8 centres
![Page 9: Problems in management of patients with PAOD K.Roztocil IKEM, Prague 18 Eurochap Congress of the IUA and XIX Congress of the MLAVS, Palermo, October 24-27,](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062511/551be7a0550346b9588b612d/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Centres of angiology
• recommended to be preferably organized as an independent part of cardiovascular centres localized at University hospitals, composed from
• 1. Dept. of cardiology• 2. Dept of cardiosurgery • 3. Dept. of angiology• 4. Dept. of angiosurgery (+ Dept. of interv. radiology where endovascular
interventions are not performed by angiologists)
![Page 10: Problems in management of patients with PAOD K.Roztocil IKEM, Prague 18 Eurochap Congress of the IUA and XIX Congress of the MLAVS, Palermo, October 24-27,](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062511/551be7a0550346b9588b612d/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Specialized centres of angiology
• Composed from : out-patients clinic, nonivasive investigation lab, percutaneous interventions, standard beds and intensive care unit for angiological patients
• At least 3 angiologists• Specialized care, interdisciplinary cooperation in most
serious conditions• Aside of this :• Acreditation for postgraduate education in angiology• Leading role in ongoing and future preventive
cardiovascular programms

Current strategy in management of patients with PAD
Based on recommendations formulated by • 1. Transatlantic Inter-Society Consensus for the
management of PAD • J.Vasc.Surg. 45, S1-S68, 2007• 2. ACC/AHA Guidelines (JACC 2006)• 3. 8th ACCP Conference (Chest 2008) • 4. CEVF Consensus on Intermittent Claudication
(Intern.Angiol. 2008)
![Page 12: Problems in management of patients with PAOD K.Roztocil IKEM, Prague 18 Eurochap Congress of the IUA and XIX Congress of the MLAVS, Palermo, October 24-27,](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062511/551be7a0550346b9588b612d/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
TASC II statement:
• Patients with PAD must be approached with the same intensity for secondary prevention and risk factor modification as recommended for patients with CAD or carotid artery disease.

„You are non-smoker….hm….what a pitty, because in the case of smoking it would be helpful for you to stop.“
SMOKING IS THE MOST IMPORTANT
![Page 15: Problems in management of patients with PAOD K.Roztocil IKEM, Prague 18 Eurochap Congress of the IUA and XIX Congress of the MLAVS, Palermo, October 24-27,](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062511/551be7a0550346b9588b612d/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Modification of atherosclerotic risk factors
• Typically multiple risk factors in patients with PAD :
• It needs approach on multiple levels - smoking cessation, physical activity, dietary modification, weight reduction or maintenance, blood pressure control, elevated LDL cholesterol levels, antiplatelet drugs, glycemic control in diabetics
![Page 16: Problems in management of patients with PAOD K.Roztocil IKEM, Prague 18 Eurochap Congress of the IUA and XIX Congress of the MLAVS, Palermo, October 24-27,](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062511/551be7a0550346b9588b612d/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Pharmacotherapy of risk factors
• cholesterol-lowering
• anti-platelets
• ACEi
• ca-inhibitors
![Page 17: Problems in management of patients with PAOD K.Roztocil IKEM, Prague 18 Eurochap Congress of the IUA and XIX Congress of the MLAVS, Palermo, October 24-27,](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062511/551be7a0550346b9588b612d/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)

Call to action : Main items of the document
• 1) to increase awareness of PAD and its consequences
• 2) improve the identification of patients with symptomatic and asymptomatic PAD
• 3) screening of high risk patients• 4) improve treatment of patients with
PAD• 5) early detection of asymptomatic cases
![Page 25: Problems in management of patients with PAOD K.Roztocil IKEM, Prague 18 Eurochap Congress of the IUA and XIX Congress of the MLAVS, Palermo, October 24-27,](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062511/551be7a0550346b9588b612d/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Rationale for creation of a national PAD initiatives
• High prevalence of PAD• High mortality (2-4-fold)• Nonfatal CV events (3-5-fold)• Quality of life • Patient awareness of PAD is low (less than 50%)• Physicians awareness is low (less than 1/3)• Detection of PAD is relatively simple (ABI)• Treatment is underused (pharmacotherapy of RF)

Trends in blood pressure control
![Page 36: Problems in management of patients with PAOD K.Roztocil IKEM, Prague 18 Eurochap Congress of the IUA and XIX Congress of the MLAVS, Palermo, October 24-27,](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062511/551be7a0550346b9588b612d/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
CONCLUSION 1. While vascular and endovascular surgery is rather well
created with continously increasing numbers of revascularization, there is insufficiency of angiologists care, which is necessary for majority of vascular patients 2. Secondary prevention and pharmacotherapy of risk factors in patients with PAD is at present less intensive than in patients with CAD and CVD and it is related to worse prognosis of persons with PAD
3. It is generally accepted that there is a need of improved awareness, detection and treatment of patients with PAD.
4. National programm initiated in the CZ aimed at better risk factors control in patients with PAD was presented with promising preliminary findings.
