Abstract
Background:Daily activity should be an important factor to consider when deciding on a treatment strategy for critical limb ischemia (CLI), and we hypothesized that there was a close relationship between activities of daily living (ADL) and prognosis. The aim of this study was to investigate the association between ADL and outcomes of open bypass for CLI. Methods and Results:A total of 226 patients undergoing infrainguinal bypass for CLI between January 2005 and December 2015 were reviewed. They were divided into 2 groups based on Barthel index (BI) at admission (pre-BI; ≥60 and Conclusions:It is not BI at admission, but BI at discharge that determines long-term outcome.Keywords
