Abstract
Cardiac and cerebrovascular disease is the most frequent cause of morbidity and mortality in the Western world. Another important form of arterial disease or atherosclerosis is chronic peripheral arterial disease. The prevalence of peri-pheral arterial disease varies with the age of the patients, with rates of 3.1% at ages 40–59 years, 5.4% at ages 60–69 years and 7.7% at age 70 years and above [18]; 70% of the patients were 65 years and older, and the disease is twice as common in men than in women; with asymptomatic disease the rate is doubled [9].
