Viktigt behandla riskfaktorer vid kritisk extremitetsischemi
(2007) In Läkartidningen 104(11). p.4-860- Abstract
- Patients with chronic critical limb ischaemia (CLI) have a one-year mortality of around 20%, and a ten-year survival of around 25%, mainly due to concomitant cardio- and cerebrovascular atherosclerotic disease. Risk factors for the development of peripheral atherosclerosis and CLI are the same as for cardio- and cerebrovascular atherosclerosis; diabetes mellitus, hyperlipidaemia, arterial hypertension, and smoking are common in CLI patients. As risk factor studies in CLI and peripheral arterial occlusive disease (PAOD) are few, treatment recommendations are often based on studies in patients with cardio- or cerebrovascular atherosclerosis and it can therefore not be definitely established that the recommendations are adequate for CLI...

As risk factor studies in CLI and peripheral arterial occlusive disease (PAOD) are few, treatment recommendations are often based on studies in patients with cardio- or cerebrovascular atherosclerosis and it can therefore not be definitely established that the recommendations are adequate for CLI patients. While waiting for specific studies, CLI patients should be treated according to current guidelines for other atherosclerotic patients. Medical risk factor treatment in CLI is often suboptimal in relation to recommendations, however, and both better treatment and more studies of medical risk factors in CLI patients are therefore needed.
