Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, Article CD013407. https://doi.org/10.1002/14651858.CD013407.pub2

Background
Lower limb peripheral arterial disease (PAD) is a type of cardiovascular disease where the blood vessels that carry the blood to the legs are hardened and narrowed. The most severe manifestation of PAD is critical limb ischaemia (CLI). Th...
