Objective
Intermittent claudication occurs in 20 % of the population over 70 and treatment includes a supervised exercise programme (SEP). Whilst there is evidence demonstrating walking improvements following a SEP there is conflicting data on the ph...

The BASES expert statement on exercise training for people with intermittent claudication due to peripheral arterial disease (2018)
Report
Tew, G., Harwood, A., Ingle, L., Chetter, I., & Doherty, P. (2018). The BASES expert statement on exercise training for people with intermittent claudication due to peripheral arterial disease. Leeds: British Association of Sports & Exercise Science

Lower-limb peripheral arterial disease (PAD) is a type of cardiovascular disease in which the blood vessels (arteries) that carry blood to the legs and feet are hardened and narrowed or blocked by the build-up of fatty plaques (called atheroma). It a... Read More about The BASES expert statement on exercise training for people with intermittent claudication due to peripheral arterial disease.

Preferred exercise modalities in patients with intermittent claudication (2018)
Journal Article
Harwood, A., Hitchman, L. H., Ingle, L., Doherty, P., & Chetter, I. C. (2018). Preferred exercise modalities in patients with intermittent claudication. Journal of Vascular Nursing, 36(2), 81-84. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jvn.2017.12.002

Conventional supervised exercise programs (SEPs) for claudicants are traditionally based on time-constrained, group-based structured programs usually at a hospital site. Uptake of an SEP is poor, despite the high-level evidence demonstrating its clin... Read More about Preferred exercise modalities in patients with intermittent claudication.
