PAD is prevalent in older populations, a rapidly growing demographic in developed countries. In Canada alone, as many as 800,000 people suffer from some form of PAD. The disease can manifest in mild symptoms such as chronic leg pain, and more serious complications include poor wound healing, increased risk of stroke, and amputation. Endovascular treatment, via angioplasty and stenting of a blocked artery, is designed to treat PAD without the complications that can accompany open surgery.
