Take the First Steps in Protecting Your Health
Are you at risk for Peripheral Arterial Disease (PAD)? Answer a few quick questions to assess your risk factors. Completing this brief questionnaire will help you understand whether PAD testing might benefit you.
In this webinar, expert speakers discuss the importance of early detection of peripheral artery disease (PAD) in optimizing goal-directed medical treatment. Risk factor management and targeted appropriate interventions prevent disease progression and improve outcomes. Through a review of case examples, speakers illustrate the positive impact of volume plethysmography-based PAD detection at the point of care and multidisciplinary coordinated care on patient outcomes.

Challenges in Managing Peripheral
Arterial Disease
Managing Peripheral Artery Disease (PAD) poses several significant challenges for healthcare providers and patients alike. Understanding these challenges is crucial for improving detection, treatment, and patient outcomes.
Watch the video below to hear Dr. Sonya Tuerff discuss the challenges of managing PAD.
Limited Appointment Time
Healthcare providers often face constraints in their schedules, leading to limited time for comprehensive physical examinations and thorough history-taking. This can result in missed opportunities for early detection, especially with asymptomatic patient population or even those presenting with atypical symptoms.
Scheduling delays for any follow up may further impact timely follow up treatment plans.
Coverage for PAD Testing
PAD may not be covered by insurance, particularly for asymptomatic patients. This lack of reimbursement discourages both patients and providers from pursuing early diagnostic tests and preventive treatments.
Educational Gaps
There is a notable lack of education regarding PAD, particularly concerning early detection and holistic treatment approaches. Both patients and clinicians often lack awareness of the disease’s risks, symptoms, and management strategies, which can lead to delayed diagnosis and treatment.
Specialist Focus
Specialists often prioritize interventions or focus on their subspecialties, such as coronary artery disease. This can create a fragmented approach to care, where PAD may not receive the attention it requires in a broader cardiovascular context.
Managing Peripheral Arterial Disease (PAD) is challenging due to its often asymptomatic nature, the need for early detection in high-risk populations, and the necessity of comprehensive care that addresses both lifestyle modifications and medical interventions.
