Do the clinical outcomes in patients with peripheral artery disease undergoing endovascular treatment depend on pulse waveform analysis indices and endothelial function parameters in 1 year follow-up?

Aim: Several predictors of clinical outcomes after percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (PTA) interventions in patients with peripheral arterial disease (PAD) have been investigated. Indices of endothelial function (EF), arterial pulse waveform analysis (aPWA) and markers of peripheral arteries ischemia were among mostly examined. The aim of the current study was to assess the relationship between potential predictors of clinical outcomes after PTA of peripheral arteries during one year follow-up.
