Peripheral arterial disease and cardiovascular risk. The importance of Doppler in multi-pathological population
Journal Title: Annals of Circulation - Year 2017, Vol 2, Issue 1
Abstract
Objective: The aim of this study is to calculate cardiovascular risk (CVR), vascular age (VA), and prevalence of peripheral arterial disease (PAD) in the multi-pathological population admitted to Internal Medicine services, as well as to study the relationship between PAD and Mönckeberg’s calcification with VA and cardiovascular risk factors (CRF) in this population.
