Our objectives were to 1.Explore whether depression is accounted for in MLLA patients at Black Country Vascular Network during ward round interactions, both pre- and post-operatively (first cycle). 2. Encourage doctors to enquire about pre- and post-operative depression in MLLA patients during ward rounds to assess whether there is evidence of depression which would otherwise be unaccounted for (second cycle). 3.Modify the existing Vascular ward round proforma to include routine screening for depression in MLLA patients

Lower extremity arterial disease is a serious condition due to its local and general prognosis. Currently, hybrid treatment is increasingly recommended for managing ilio-femoral occlusive lesions. Our study reports the outcomes of hybrid surgery for iliac-femoral occlusive lesions in terms of primary and secondary patency, limb salvage, and postoperative complications.

This study identifies a high prevalence of undiagnosed cognitive impairment and increased anxiety in PAD patients, especially those with diabetes. Routine cognitive and mental health screening is crucial for optimizing management, improving surgical outcomes, and reducing healthcare burdens in PAD patients. Further research is needed to explore the relationship between cognitive impairment and PAD severity, as well as the long-term progression of cognitive decline in this population

Endovascular therapy is the mainstay of treatment for chronic limb threatening ischemia. These procedures have a restenosis risk of 50% over 2 years which can lead to limb loss. The aim of the study is to assess the feasibility, acceptability and impact on clinical decision making of implementing a 1-year integrated ultrasound surveillance programme for patients after lower limb endovascular therapy. DUSTER is a mixed methods study, comprised of 3 phases. Phase 1 is a multi-site, feasibility randomised controlled trial. The standard of care arm is clinical surveillance by a vascular specialist at 1, 6 and 12 months following endovascular therapy. The intervention arm will receive integrated ultrasounds (ankle-brachial pressure index, toe pressure and duplex) in addition to the standard clinical surveillance. Primary outcomes are related to feasibility and acceptability, including rates of attendance and completion of ultrasound surveillance appointments, as well as percentage of participants undergoing reintervention for restenosis. Secondary outcomes will measure limb salvage, amputation free survival, reasons for major amputation, reintervention complications, major adverse events, and mortality. Phase 2 comprises independent semi-structured interviews with intervention arm participants. The interviews will explore barriers and facilitators to ultrasound surveillance and the effect of ultrasound surveillance on patients ' lives. Phase 3 will have 2 separate focus groups of participants and clinical stakeholders to identify which of the Phase 1 secondary outcomes matter most to stakeholders and appear feasible in a follow-on HTA-funded trial of clinical and cost-effectiveness of ultrasound surveillance.

Current PAD diagnostics (DUS/CTA) have limitations (radiation, contrast, repeatability). This pilot study evaluated the novel Sonosphere Computed Ultrasound (CUS) device's potential for enhancing PAD assessment. Aims: Assess agreement with clinical measurements (flow angle, diameter), validate AI-driven segmentation, evaluate clinical impact (e.g., velocity ratio errors) & benefits vs. DUS (visualization, time). Aiming for improved accuracy, efficiency, and clinical decision-making in PAD assessment.

There is no clear consensus on an optimal modality of revascularisation in patients with critical upper limb ischemia (CULI). The results of endovascular interventions are less promising in long occlusive and very distal lesions. We present our experience and technique of vein bypass exclusively to palmar arch for the treatment of CULI.

Background Osteomyelitis (OM) associated with diabetic foot ulceration (DFU) is a growing public health challenge worldwide. Since 2012 the number of patients presenting with DFU per year to our centre has doubled. Objective This study aims to evaluate outcomes from outpatient antibiotic therapy (OPAT) in the management of OM in DFU patients. Methods A retrospective analysis was performed of medical notes, radiology, and vascular laboratory reports for all DFU patients with OM treated from April 2016 to April 2020. Variables analyzed included age, gender, site of OM, WIfI Score (Wound Ischaemia and foot Infection Score), probe-to-bone test (PTB), imaging (X-ray/magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), co-morbidities (peripheral arterial disease (PAD), chronic kidney disease (CKD), hypertension (HTN), smoking, ischemic heart disease (IHD), and dyslipidaemia. Outcomes evaluated were healing, recurrent DFU, and freedom from amputation at 12 months. Results 185 patients were admitted with 264 infected digits (Male 223; Female 41). The mean age was 66 years. Only 168 (63.6%) were fully healed at 12 months. Of the 96 patients who failed to heal, 43 underwent a repeat course of prolonged antibiotics without improvement. Factors associated with treatment failure were PAD, poorly controlled HbA1c and Deep or Extensive Ulcer or Gangrene. Conclusion Extended outpatient antibiotic therapy (with an inpatient multidisciplinary approach) is an effective treatment for digital OM in DFU with a success rate of 63%. In recurrence, repeating prolonged antibiotics is unlikely to achieve healing. PAD, poorly controlled HbA1c and Deep or Extensive Ulcer or Gangrene are predictors of treatment failure

Lesions in the CFA treated with the Supera stent is feasible, efficient and has the benefit of short hospital stay and avoiding postoperative risks of open surgery. Endovascular treatment of the CFA can and should be considered particularly in the elderly population.

Combined Hybrid endovascular and surgical revascularisation has proved its efficacy in managing complex PVD in critical leg ischemia (CLI). However, extensive infra-inguinal occlusive disease still remains too challenging for such modality. We report a new approach combining Hybrid Remote Endarterectomy and distal bypass technique for such challenging cases.
