Objectives

At the conclusion of this continuing medical education activity participants will be able to:

1.   Describe technical considerations related to diagnosis and management of acute lower extremity ischemia.
2.   Provide evidence-based approaches to diagnosis, treatment, and surveillance of arterial fibromuscular dysplasia.
3.   Explain the role of duplex ultrasound screening as a component of diagnostic evaluation for suspected temporal arteritis.
4.   Determine how to distinguish between vascular versus non-vascular causes of lower extremity pain and edema.
5.   Describe practical approaches to establishing and maintaining arteriovenous access for hemodialysis.
6.   Review multi-disciplinary approaches to lower extremity preservation among patients at risk for amputation due to vascular and non-vascular diagnoses.
7.   Review evidence-based approaches to preoperative risk screening and preparation.
8.   Discuss pharmacologic management of vascular graft infections.
