Background: The ankle brachial pressure index (ABPI) is a common diagnostic tool used in the assessment of peripheral arterial disease (PAD). The Doppler ultrasound technique is regarded as the gold-standard method for ABPI measurement; however, time...

BACKGROUND: Lower limb amputation (LLA) is typically described as 'clean surgery', but surgical-site infection (SSI) rates are high and there is significant variation in antibiotic prophylaxis practice. This study aimed to determine whether an extend... Read More about Extended-course antibiotic prophylaxis in lower limb amputation: randomized clinical trial.
