Abstract

In patients with advanced stages of peripheral arterial occlusive disease, the increasing perfusion of ischemic skin is of particular therapeutic significance. In several clinical studies [10, 12, 18], an increase in the transcutaneous oxygen pressure could be observed after intravenous prostaglandin Ex infusion. The present study investigated the question of whether the transcutaneous oxygen pressure can also be improved in selected patients with very low pressures and thus a poor initial situation. Moreover, the dose dependency of this parameter was investigated.
