Peripheral artery disease affects more than 200 million people worldwide. More commonly known as “PAD,” the disease can cause pain, impaired mobility and even the loss of limbs.
In the United States, peripheral artery disease is already a serious health concern, affecting as many as 12 million Americans. Yet the disease’s toll is expected to rise as the population ages, as obesity rates increase and as diabetes becomes more common.
It is more important than ever that this serious disease receives greater public awareness — and that people facing PAD have better access to diagnosis and treatment.
