Below the knee - Critical Limb Ischaemia (CLI)

Find all the latest content on below the knee peripheral interventions published on this website.

There are a variety of symptoms characterising lower limb ischaemia differentiating intermittent claudication (IC) from critical limb ischaemia (CLI). These different conditions can impact disease progression and treatment with CLI associated with increased rates of morbidity and mortality and amputation. The use of imaging, adjunctive pharmacotherapy, stents, devices and techniques as well as understanding vascular access and bleeding complications are critical and can be found here…
