  2. Occlusive Peripheral Vascular Disease • Peripheral vascular disease • Includes any disease affecting the peripheral vascular system • Occlusive – essentially blocked arteries

  3. Outline • Review of the circulation • Pathogenesis of blocked arteries • Manifestations of blocked arteries • Monitoring the circulation • Occlusive peripheral vascular disease • Acute Ischemia • Chronic Ischemia

  4. Review Of Circulation • Cells need supply of nutrients and removal of by products • In a unicellular organism this may occur via the cell membrane into say a pond or sea • Multicellular organisms need a circulatory system

  5. William Harvey (1578-1657) On the Motion of the Heart and Blood in Animals (1628)

  6. Problem With Blocked Circulation • Tissues lack adequate supply of nutrients • Tissues suffer build of toxic by products • May cause symptoms and signs particularly when more blood flow is required; • To muscles during exercise • To tissues that are injured (more blood needed)

  7. Pathogenesis Of Blocked Arteries • Atherosclerosis • Genes, hyperlipidemias • Lifestyle • Smoking • High fat diet • Lack of exercise • Co-morbidities • Diabetes, hypertension, hypothyroidism, homocysteine

  8. Manifestations Of Blocked Arteries • Depends on circulation affected • Heart • Stable angina, unstable angina, myocardial infarction • Brain • Transient ischemic attact, stroke • Kidney • Hypertension, renal failure • Legs • Claudication, rest pain, necrosis

  9. Principal causes of death in Ireland (males) Report on Vital Statistics Central Statistics Office Ireland, 1995

  10. Annual Deaths Due toCerebrovascular Disease andIschemic Heart Disease Report on Vital Statistics Central Statistics Office Ireland, 1995

  11. Manifestations Of Blocked Arteries • Depends on speed of development of blockage • Slow blockage • Permits development of collateral blood supply so that occlusion may be asymptomatic • Rapid blockage • No time for development of collaterals • Symptoms/ signs depend on adequacy of preexisting collaterals

  12. Monitoring Circulation • Mottling, colour, temperature, movements, sensation • Palpable pulses, doppler signals • Non invasive pressure studies (Doppler) • Duplex imaging • Angiography (IAA, DSA, MRA)

  13. Non Invasive Pressure Studies(NIPS)

  14. Duplex of carotid stenosis

  15. Angiography(DSA)

  16. MRA

  17. Occlusive Peripheral Vascular Disease • Classification based upon clinical presentation • Acute ischemia • Chronic ischemia • Anatomic classifcation based upon site(s) of disease

  18. OPVD Anatomic Classification • Aorto-iliac • Le-Riche • Femero-popliteal • Tibio-peroneal

  19. Acute Ischemia

  20. Effects Of Acute Ischemia • Reduced blood flow • Pulseless, pallor, perishing cold • Nerve ischemia • Pain, paralysis, Paresthesia • Muscle ischemia • Rhabdomyolysis • Compartment syndrome • Ischemia reperfusion syndrome

  21. Compartment Syndrome • Pathophysiology • Diagnosis • Management

  22. Compartment SyndromePathophysiology • Strong fascia encases the limb to aid muscle function and return of venous blood • Injury results in swelling • Swelling raises pressure • Pressure occludes lymphatic return, then venous return, then arterial inflow • Result is dead or severly damaged tissues due to pressure and ischemia

  23. Compartment Syndrome Diagnosis • Strong index of suspicion • Nature of injury and duration of ischemia • Clinical manifestations • Nerve and muscle dysfunction • Decreased perfusion • Tense compartment • May measure compartment pressure as adjunct to treatment > 40 mm hg

  24. Compartment SyndromeManagement • Fasciotomy

  25. Acute Ischemia • Causes • Thrombosis • Embolism • The P’s • Thrombosis or embolism? • Clinical assessment of severity • Clinical algorithm

  26. Causes of Acute Ischemia • Trauma • Thrombosis • Embolism • Small print • Aneurysm • Thrombophilia • Paradoxial embolism • Anatomic variation • Csytic adventitial disease

  27. Thrombosis • Occlusive atherosclerosis • Aneurysm • Malignancy • Thrombophilia

  28. Embolism • Macro-embolism • arterial side • venous side (patent foramen ovale) • Micro-embolism • ulcerated atherosclerotic plaques • aneurysm

  29. The P ’s • No flow in artery • Pallor • Pulse absent • Perishing cold • Nerve becomes ischemic • Pain • Paresthesia / anesthesia • Paralysis

  30. Thrombosis or Embolism?

  31. Clinical Assessment of Severity • Viable no immediate threat • Threatened • Marginally ok if treated promptly • Immediately ok if treated immediately • Irreversible dead leg

  32. Irreversible Ischemia • Sensory loss Profound,anaesthetic • Muscle weaknessProfound, paralysis • Arterial doppler Inaudible • Venous doppler Inaudible Amputation

  33. Viable no immediate threat • Sensory loss None • Muscle weakness None • Arterial doppler Audible • Venous doppler Audible • Restore perfusion

  34. Clinical Assessment of Severity • Viable No immediate threat • Threatened • marginally Ok if treated promptly • immediately Ok if treated immediately • Irreversible Dead leg

  35. Threatened Marginally • Sensory loss Minimal (toes) to none • Muscle weakness None • Arterial doppler Inaudible • Venous doppler Audible • Restore perfusion

  36. Threatened Immediately • Sensory loss More than toes, Pain • Muscle weakness Mild to moderate • Arterial doppler Inaudible • Venous doppler Audible Restore perfusion

  37. Practical Questions • Is this ischemia? (DDx stroke, TIA, cord) • Is the limb viable, threatened or lost? • If threatened how long can reperfusion be delayed? • Is there a need for duplex or angiography? • Should the patient be immediately heparinised?

  38. acute non traumatic ischemia Irreversible Threatened Viable Clear embolus ?Thrombosis Duplex Adequate Inadequate Angiogram Treat Amputation Embolectomy Thrombolyse +/- PTA Reconstruct

  39. Prognosis • Embolism • Overall 60% dead within three years • One episode 15-20% mortality (in hospital) • Two episodes 40% mortality (in hospital) • Thrombosis • Overall 40% dead within three years

  40. Chronic Ischemia

  41. LaFontaine Classification Stage 1 claudication Stage 2 rest pain Stage 3 necrosis/ulceration

  42. Prognosis in Claudicants • About 15% will progress to requiring revasculartion or amputation • Much higher risk of death from IHD and stroke • Rule out diabetes, hypertension and hypercholesterolemia • Exercise, Smoking cessation, Aspirin and a Statin + control of risks

  43. Re-Vascularisation ? • Risk factor control, aspirin, statin • Pain control • Dressing • Sympathectomy (chemical, surgical) • Iloprost • Angioplasty +/- Stent (? Drug elute) • Surgical

  44. Surgical Re-Vascularisation • Embolectomy and Thrombolysis • Patchplasty (synthetic/ autogenous) • Endarterectomy (open/closed/eversion) • Bypass with synthetic material • Bypass with autogenous material

  45. Definition Of Critical Ischemia • Presence of tissue loss OR • Rest pain with ankle pressure less than 50 mm Hg FOR • More than 2 weeks

  46. Acute on Chronic Bypass

  47. J.C. 68 year old male • Emergency admission 24.3.2000 to vascular service SVUH, via A/E • Ischemic right foot
