Overview
History
- Any exertional limitation of the lower extremity muscles or any history of walking impairment (fatigue, numbness, aching, or pain
- Any poorly healing or non healing of the legs or feet
- Any pain at rest localized at the lower leg or foot and its association with the upright or recumbent positions
- Postprandial abdominal pain that reproducibly is provoked by eating and is associated with weight loss
- Family history of a first-degree relative with Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm
Symptoms
- Leg symptoms with exertion (suggestive of claudication or ischemic rest pain.
- PAD symptoms severity
- Maximal walking speed
- Normal = 3-4 mph
- PAD = 1-2 mph
- Maximal walking distance
- Normal = unlimited
- PAD, 31% difficulty walking in home
- PAD, 66% difficulty walking 1/2 block
- Peak VO2
- PAD reduced 50% (NYHA class III CHF)
- Maximal walking speed

Recommendations - Vascular History and Physical Examination
Class I 1. Individuals at risk for lower extremity PAD (see Section 2.1.1, Table 2) should undergo a vascular review of symptoms to assess walking impairment, claudication, ischemic rest pain, and/or the presence of nonhealing wounds. (Level of Evidence: C)
2. Individuals at risk for lower extremity PAD (see Section 2.1.1) should undergo comprehensive pulse examination and inspection of the feet. (Level of Evidence: C)
3. Individuals over 50 years of age should be asked if they have a family history of a first-order relative with an abdominal aortic aneurysm. (Level of Evidence: C)
