Study of Incidence of Asymptomatic PAD in Type 2 Dibetics in a Rural Tertiary Care Center in Southern most India
Subscribe/Renew Journal
The aim of our study was to establish the high prevalence of undetected, asymptomatic peripheral arterial disease in type2 diabetes in asymptomatic patients in the community. The study included 100 patients and equal number of controls, with 71% women in study group (78% in control).
Age of the control group was statistically significantly higher (51.7±6.3 vs 61.3±9.1 yrs p<0.001). Among the study patients 24% had ABI <0.9 compared to 4% in control group though age wise control group was older and had more chance of age related atherosclerosis, thereby proving the higher incidence of peripheral vascular disease in diabetic patients, even in the absence of symptoms.
