WHY PAD TESTING SHOULD BE DONE IN YOUR PRACTICE
PAD testing saves patient’s lives, improves their health*
- Peripheral artery disease, PAD, is a serious disease – with deadly consequences
- Mortality is higher than many common diseases you test for*
- Early diagnosis and treatment can avoid disability and improve quality of life
If you don’t test, most PAD will be missed
- History and physical exam are unreliable
- Over half of PAD patients are asymptomatic or believe their pains are arthritis or have stopped walking far enough to
bring on claudication. As few as 10% have claudication. - Asymptomatic patients have the same prognosis as those with symptoms
Your patients prefer that testing be done in your office
- Validates your patient’s trust in you to find their PAD before they have an MI, stroke or amputation
- They appreciate having it done in your office rather than be sent elsewhere
