The purpose of this presentation is to bring awareness the challenges in caring for patients with Chronic Limb-threatening Ischemia.
Chronic limb-threatening ischemia (CLTI) patients can be challenging to care for. Vascular technologists can provide additional information that is valuable to the vascular specialists pre-operatively, intra-operatively, and post-operatively. The knowledge gap is the specialist understanding what additional information vascular technologists can provide and the vascular ultrasound technologist understanding how and what information to add to the standard lower extremity arterial duplex in the CLTI patient.
