Abstract
We found that veterans with PAD have a high prevalence of comorbid conditions and have a significant risk of mortality and limb loss. A substantial proportion of veterans with PAD are not prescribed recommended medications, especially statin therapy. Our data highlight important opportunities for improving care of veterans with PAD.
