This is a proof-of-concept study with exploratory objective to assess whether superficial tissue oxygenation patterns measured by Snapshot NIRS, in conjunction with the Provocative Elevation Maneuver of the Lower Extremity (PEMLE) and/or the Plantar Palmar Index (PPI), are associated with the severity of peripheral arterial disease (PAD) as determined by standard of care assessments and can be used to assess tissue oxygenation after revascularization, where applicable.
Study Type
OBSERVATIONAL
Enrollment
200
Observational study only. All data collection will be completely observational and will not affect the patient care and treatment plan by any means.
To characterize superficial tissue oxygenation patterns, as measured by Snapshot NIRS, in patients with suspected or confirmed peripheral arterial disease (PAD).
To characterize superficial tissue oxygenation patterns, as measured by Snapshot NIRS, in patients with suspected or confirmed peripheral arterial disease (PAD). PEMLE and PPI will be performed during the NIR assessment to support exploratory correlation with oxygenation patterns.
