This vlog provides learners with the perspective of a leading vascular medicine expert, Dr. Anahita Dua, on recent advances and practical considerations for patients with PAD post-revascularization. Talking points include the latest approvals and evidence, real-world implications of these recent advances, and roles of the interdisciplinary team in the management of this patient population.
This activity is intended for cardiologists, hospitalists, primary care clinicians, vascular surgeons, and other clinicians in the interdisciplinary PAD team.
The purpose of this activity is to provide learners with a brief and engaging activity to provide current guidance and limitations with recommendations for patients with PAD post-revascularization, as well as understand the implications of recent evidence. Learners post-activity will be better able to tailor personalized treatment regimens for patients with PAD post-revascularization with respect to the latest clinical trial data and expert insights, and understand the role of the interdisciplinary team with post-revascularization care.
Upon completion of this activity, participants will be able to:
• Identify current antiplatelet and anticoagulant practices for patients with PAD post-revascularization
• Outline practical implications of recent advances for patients with peripheral artery disease (PAD) post-revascularization
• Create effective treatment plans for patients with PAD post-revascularization secondary to the latest research and expert insights
• Identify current antiplatelet and anticoagulant practices for patients with PAD post-revascularization
• Outline practical implications of recent advances for patients with peripheral artery disease (PAD) post-revascularization
• Create effective treatment plans for patients with PAD post-revascularization secondary to the latest research and expert insights

This educational activity was planned and produced in accordance with the ACCME Standards for Integrity and Independence in Accredited Continuing Education. Recommendations involving clinical medicine in a continuing medical education (CME/CE) activity must be based on evidence that is accepted within the profession of medicine as adequate justification for their indications and contraindications in the care of patients. All scientific research referred to, reported, or used in CME/CE in support or justification of a patient care recommendation must conform to the generally accepted standards of experimental design, data collection, and analysis.
This CME/CE activity might describe the off-label, investigational, or experimental use of medications and/or devices that may exceed their FDA-approved labeling. Physicians should consult the current manufacturers’ prescribing information for these products. ACHL requires the speaker to disclose that a product is not labeled for the use under discussion.
This activity will take approximately 15 minutes to complete. To receive credit, participants are required to complete the pretest, view the online activity and complete the posttest and evaluation.
