The Society for Vascular Surgery Objective Performance Goals for Critical Limb Ischemia are attainable in select patients with ischemic wounds managed with wound care alone

A comprehensive set treatment goals and expected amputation free survival outcomes can guide revascularization, but also assure that appropriate outcomes are achieved for patients treated without revascularizaton. The two-year outcomes achieved in this cohort provide an estimate of outcomes for nonrevascularized CLTI patients. Although multi-center or prospective studies are needed, we demonstrate that equal, even improved, limb salvage rates are possible.
