The ACCF/AHA/ACR/SCAI/SIR/SVM/SVN/SVS Peripheral Artery Disease Performance Measures Writing Committee was charged to develop performance measures for peripheral artery disease (PAD). These performance measures address lower extremity and abdominal aortic disease, as covered by the ACC/AHA 2005 Guidelines for theManagement of Patients With Peripheral Arterial Disease (Lower Extremity, Renal, Mesenteric, and Abdominal Aortic)(hereafter,“PAD guidelines”). 12 The measures are intended for adults (age 18 years) evaluated in the outpatient setting. The writing committee acknowledges that the field is rapidly evolving due to the contributions of observational research, registries, and clinical trials. Hence, modifications to these performance measures for PAD will be necessary as the field advances. In addition, there has been a recent change in the nomenclature for vascular diseases. 13 The term atherosclerotic vascular disease refers to disease of the arteries (other than the coronary arteries) caused by atherosclerosis. 14 We have
