Abstract
This study investigated the distribution of risk factors, lesion characteristics and endovascular revascularization (EVR) strategies in patients with peripheral arterial disease (PAD) with vs without diabetes mellitus (DM). Data were collected within the RECcording COurses of vasculaR Diseases (RECCORD) registry. Demographic data, lesion localization (iliac vs femoropopliteal vs below-the-knee (BTK)) and lesion complexity score (LCS) based on number of affected segments, and lesion length (< 10 vs 10-20 vs > 20 cm), EVR strategies and peri-procedural complications were analysed in 786 patients with and 1337 without diabetes mellitus. Patients with diabetes mellitus were older (71.6 ± 9.6 vs 69.4 ± 10.5 years, P < .001) and had higher LCS and more often BTK lesions (P < .05 for all). Lesions were treated less frequently with stents (48.7 vs 59.6%, P < .001) in patients with diabetes mellitus, whereas a non-significant trend was noticed for higher DCB treatment rates (48.3 vs 44.4%, P = .07). Post-interventional ankle-brachial index (ABI) increase was similar (from .77 ± .28 to .92 ± .25 with diabetes mellitus and from .74 ± .21 to .90 ± .20 without diabetes mellitus, P < .001 for both). Peri-/post-procedural complications were low in both groups (4.6%). Patients with diabetes mellitus, who undergo endovascular revascularization are older, have more comorbidities and higher target lesion complexity. However, treatment success rates are similar and complication rates are low.

Clinical Characteristics and Current Practice of Endovascular Revascularization in Aorto-Iliac, Femoropopliteal and Infra-Popliteal Lower Extremity Artery Disease-Insights from the RECCORD Registry. J Clin Med 2022; 11:jcm11206074. [PMID: 36294394 PMCID: PMC9605640 DOI: 10.3390/jcm11206074] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/29/2022] [Revised: 09/19/2022] [Accepted: 10/11/2022] [Indexed: 11/07/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Endovascular revascularization (EVR) is a pillar of therapeutic management in patients with symptomatic lower extremity artery disease (LEAD). Due to lack of scientific evidence, the approach of EVR type and the devices used at the different anatomic vascular segments of the lower limbs vary substantially between operators and centers. We analyzed data from the RECcording COurses of vasculaR Diseases (RECCORD) registry to assess the current real-world EVR treatment patterns in relation to anatomic vascular segments in symptomatic LEAD patients in Germany. PATIENTS AND METHODS RECCORD is an ongoing, prospective, multicenter, all-comers and entirely web-based registry platform. Baseline demographic and periprocedural data of patients undergoing EVR for symptomatic LEAD were assessed and performed EVRs were grouped according to the intervened anatomic vascular segment. We analyzed four EVR groups comprising either the aorto-iliac, femoropopliteal, or infrapopliteal segments (all these EVRs with or without a further intervention in another anatomic segment) or the infrapopliteal segment alone. RESULTS A total of 2210 EVR segments (in 1639 patients) were analyzed. Of those 616 (27.9%) were aorto-iliacal, 1346 (60.9%) femoropopliteal, 248 (11.2%) infrapopliteal and 104 (4.7%) only infrapopliteal segments. Aorto-iliac EVR was associated with younger age, smoking, claudication and simple lesions, while the distal infrapopliteal EVRs were related to advanced age, diabetes, multiple comorbidities, limb threatening ischemia and complex lesions. The use of different EVR devices at the aorto-iliac, femoropopliteal, infrapopliteal and only infrapopliteal segments were: only ballon-angioplasty: 8.3%, 12.9%, 58.1% and 63.5%; stenting: 82.3%, 45.3%, 16.9% and 12.5%; drug-coated balloon: 11.2%, 55.0%, 19.4% and 19.2%. CONCLUSION The RECCORD registry data demonstrate that in LEAD clinical and lesion characteristics are related to anatomic vascular segments. Despite the clear relationship between vascular segments and the current use of device types, prospective, segment-specific clinical studies are warranted to establish a consistent, evidence-based path for EVR in LEAD.

Women Specific Characteristics and 1-Year Outcome Among Patients Hospitalized for Peripheral Artery Disease: A Monocentric Cohort Analysis in a Tertiary Center. Front Cardiovasc Med 2022; 9:824466. [PMID: 35198617 PMCID: PMC8858944 DOI: 10.3389/fcvm.2022.824466] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/29/2021] [Accepted: 01/17/2022] [Indexed: 12/24/2022] Open
Abstract
Although women have lower age-standardized cardiovascular disease incidence, prevalence, and death-related rates than men, there are also reports indicating that women with cardiovascular disease receive less care, fewer investigations, and have poorer outcomes after a coronary event. The aims of this study were to compare the characteristics of men and women hospitalized for peripheral artery disease (PAD), their cardiovascular and limb outcomes, and their 1-year mortality. The study is a prospective registry collecting data about all consecutive patients hospitalized for PAD within the vascular department of the tertiary center Georges-Pompidou European Hospital (Paris, France). Patients were required to have one of three inclusion criteria: previous revascularization of the lower limb or any lower limb artery occlusion due to an atherosclerotic vascular disease or hemodynamic evidence of PAD. Exclusion criteria were patients with lower extremity arterial occlusion due to another cause. All patients were followed-up for at least 12 months after the initial hospitalization. Among the 235 patients included, there were 61 women (26%), older than men with a median age of 75.6 and 68.3 years, respectively. Main cardiovascular risk factors and comorbidities were similar for men and women except more former or current smokers [145 (83.4%) vs. 33 (54.1%)] and more history of coronary heart disease [42 (24.1%) vs. 7 (11.5%)] in men. Most patients [138 (58.8%)] had critical limb ischemia and 97 (41.3%) had claudication, with no difference for sex. After discharge, 218 patients received an antithrombotic therapy (93.2%), 195 a lipid-lowering drug (83.3%), 185 an angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitor or angiotensin-receptor blocker (78.9%), similarly between sex. At 1-year, overall mortality, major adverse cardiovascular events, major adverse limb events did not differ with 23 (13.2%), 11 (6.3%) and 32 (18.4%) in men, and 8 (13.1%), 3 (4.9%), 15 (24.6%) in women, respectively, despite the difference in age. Overall mortality, cardiovascular outcomes, limb revascularization or amputation did not differ between men and women, 1-year after hospitalization for PAD although the latter were older, less smoker and had less coronary artery disease. Due to the small size of this cohort, larger studies and future research are needed to better understand sex-specific mechanisms in the pathophysiology and natural history of PAD.

Abstract
Summary: Background: The RECcording COurses of vasculaR Diseases (RECCORD) registry established by the German Society of Angiology – Society for Vascular Medicine aimed to address the lack in contemporary real-world data regarding current practice of medical and interventional care in vascular patients. We herein report the demographic and procedural characteristics of the first 1000 patients undergoing endovascular revascularization (EVR) for symptomatic peripheral artery disease (PAD). Patients and methods: RECCORD is an observational, prospective, multicenter, all-comers registry. Only patients undergoing EVR for symptomatic PAD are included and followed up for at least 1 year. Demographic characteristics, comorbidities, previous peripheral vascular interventions, medication, clinical stage of lower extremity artery disease (Rutherford category), hemodynamic parameters, and procedural data including complications are recorded via an entirely web-based platform. Results: Of the first 1000 patients (mean age 70 ± 10 years, 35% female) with 1096 EVR at 1477 vascular segments of the lower extremities, 25.0% were at the stage of chronic limb threatening ischemia (CLTI) and 75.0% at non-CLTI. The femoropopliteal segment was the dominant target lesion site (61.0%), followed by iliac (26.4%) and below-the-knee EVR (10.3%). Only angioplasty was performed in 130 EVR (11.9%), adjunctive drug coated balloons (DCB) in 498 (45.4%), additional stenting in 633 (57.8%). Debulking devices were used in 106 (9.7%) EVR. Clinical (Rutherford categories) and hemodynamic parameters (ankle-brachial-index) as well as secondary preventive medication were significantly improved post EVR. Periprocedural complications occurred in 63 (5.7%) EVR with pseudoaneurysm as the leading complication type in 26 (2.4%) EVR. Conclusions: The baseline data of the first 1000 patients from the RECCORD registry representing the real-world setting illustrate that the majority of EVR are performed in patients with claudication. Adjunctive use of DCB and stenting are the dominant types of EVR, while periprocedural complications are at an acceptable low rate.

Abstract
Abstract. Background: Atherosclerotic disease of the lower extremity arteries (PAD) remains a significant burden on global healthcare systems with increasing prevalence. Various guidelines on the diagnosis and treatment of patients with PAD are available but they often lack a sufficient evidence base for high-grade recommendations since randomized and controlled trials (RCT) remain rare or are frequently subject to conflicts of interest. This registry trial aims to evaluate the outcomes of catheter-based endovascular revascularisations vs. open-surgical endarterectomy vs. bypass surgery for symptomatic PAD on medical and patient-reported outcomes. Methods and design: The study is a prospective non-randomized multicentre registry trial including invasive revascularisations performed in 10 000 patients treated for symptomatic PAD at 30 to 40 German vascular centres. All patients matching the inclusion criteria are consecutively included for a recruitment period of six months (between May and December 2018) or until 10 000 patients have been included in the study registry. There are three follow-up measures at three, six, and 12 months. Automated completeness and plausibility checks as well as independent site visit monitoring will be performed to assure high internal and external validity of the study data. Study endpoints include relevant major cardiovascular and limb events and patient-reported outcomes from two Delphi studies with experts in vascular medicine and registry-based research. Discussion: It remains unclear if results from RCT can reflect daily treatment practice. Furthermore, great costs and complexity make it challenging to accomplish high quality randomized trials in PAD treatment. Prospective registry-based studies to collect real-world evidence can help to overcome these limitations.
