About this trial

This is a preliminary prospective observational study measuring change in lower extremity temperature in response to revascularization procedure.

The main question this study aims to answer is:

\- Are temperature measurements from a forward looking infrared (FLIR) camera of the lower extremity useful in predicting outcome of revascularization procedures?

Eligibility criteria

This trial does not accept healthy volunteers

Qualifiers

Lower extremity peripheral artery disease with tissue loss consistent with Rutherford classification V or VI.

Planned lower extremity endovascular intervention

Disqualifiers

Non-arterial ulcers

Pregnant

Trial population

People between ages 18 and 99 years with lower extremity peripheral artery disease with a planned endovascular intervention.

2

Major revascularizations post-initial intervention

Any revascularization procedures done after the initial revascularization

Time frame
Up to 1 year after revascularization
3

Mortality

Subject deaths during the length of the study
