Introduction The aim of this study was to evaluate the influence of pedal arch quality on 5-year survival and limb salvage in diabetic patients with foot wounds undergoing peripheral angiography. Methods Between January 2014 and December 2014, 153 diabetic patients with foot wounds underwent peripheral angiography. Final foot angiograms were used to allocate patients according to pedal arch: complete pedal arch (CPA), incomplete pedal arch (IPA), and absent pedal arch (APA). Five-year survival and limb salvage rates were analyzed with Kaplan–Meier curves and compared by means of Gehan–Breslow–Wilcoxon test. Associations of patient and procedure variables with overall survival and limb salvage outcomes were sought with univariate and multivariate analyses. Results A below-the-knee (BTK) artery was the target vessel in 80 cases (52.3%). Five-year Kaplan–Meier rates of survival were similar in all groups ( p = 0.1): CPA 30%, IPA 27.5%, and APA 26.4%. Five-year limb salvage rates were significantly better in patients with CPA/IPA ( p < 0.001): CPA 95.1%, IPA 94.3%, and APA 67.3%. In the whole population study, multivariate analysis showed significant association of smoking ( p = 0.01), chronic renal failure ( p = 0.02), and severity of foot wounds ( p < 0.001) with survival. Coronary artery disease ( p = 0.03), severity of foot wounds ( p = 0.001), and pedal arch status ( p = 0.05) showed strong association with limb salvage. Conclusions Pedal arch quality significantly affected limb salvage but not survival at 5 years in patients with diabetic foot ulcers. Smoking, chronic renal failure, and severity of foot wounds affected overall survival, whilst coronary artery disease, and severity of foot wounds limb salvage.

AbstractVascular access site complications can follow diagnostic coronary and peripheral angiography. We compared the complication rates of the Catalyst vascular closure device, with the complication rates after manual compression in patients undergoing diagnostic angiographic procedures via femoral access. We studied 1,470 predominantly male patients undergoing diagnostic coronary and peripheral angiography. Catalyst closure devices were used in 436 (29.7%) patients and manual compression was used in 1,034 (70.3%) patients. The former were allowed to ambulate after 2 hours, while the latter were allowed to ambulate after 6 hours. Major complications occurred in 4 (0.9%) patients who had a Catalyst device and in 14 (1.4%) patients who had manual compression (odds ratio [OR]: 0.67, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.22–2.1, p = 0.49). Any complications occurred in 51 (11.7%) patients who had a Catalyst closure device and in 64 (6.2%) patients who had manual compression (OR: 2, CI: 1.4–3, p < 0.01). After adjustment for other variables and for a propensity score reflecting the probability to receive the closure device, the association of major complications with the use of the closure device remained not significant (OR: 0.54, 95% CI: 0.17–1.7, p = 0.29), while the association of any complications with the use of the Catalyst device remained significant (OR: 1.9, 95% CI: 1.3–2.9, p < 0.01). The Catalyst device was not associated with an increased risk of major groin complications but was associated with an increased risk of any complications compared with manual compression. Patients receiving the closure device ambulated sooner.
