Brief Summary:
Whilst mortality rates and surgical limitations are widely known and understood for each intervention performed, the cost implications, in UHL, are not known. Therefore, it is deemed a matter of interest to understand these costs and weigh them against the mortality rates for each intervention if available.
Detailed Description:
Surgical interventions for patients with CLTI include endovascular revascularisation, by-pass revascularisation and amputation.
Clinical outcomes vary greatly for each intervention. The 5-year mortality rate for major amputations i.e., below knee (BKA) and above knee (AKA), is reported to range from 30% to 70%, with AKA having the higher rate of mortality. Concomitant Type II diabetes increases these rates of mortality for both AKA and BKA.
Whilst mortality rates are widely known and understood for each intervention performed, the cost implications, in UHL, are not known. Therefore, it is deemed a matter of interest to understand these costs and weigh them against the mortality rates for each intervention.
