Peripheral arterial disease (PAD) is characterized by obstruction in the lower limbs, mainly due to atherosclerosis. The prevalence of the pathology in people under 40 years of age is 6% and 15-20% in the population over 65 years old.(1,2) Approximately 50% of the affected persons are, at the time of examination, asymptomatic.(3) The most important risk factors associated with this condition are smoking, diabetes mellitus (DM), high cholesterol and high blood pressure (HBP). The current study shows that, regardless of the association of risk factors or pre-hospital treatment, these patients do not benefit from a certain type of treatment (drug or interventional), which corresponds to the existing data in the literature, which do not document the choice of type of treatment depending on the patient's age or comorbidities.
