Wound outcomes and factors associated with wound healing after first-time femoropopliteal artery intervention in patients with ischemic tissue loss

초록

Background/objective: This study & rsquo;s goal is to describe wound outcomes at 2 years following intervention for atherosclerotic femoropopliteal lesions in patients with ischemic tissue loss. Methods: A retrospective review of 135 first-time endovascular procedures for chronic femoropopliteal atherosclerotic lesions related to ischemic tissue loss was performed. The final wound outcomes were categorized according to the initial wound healing, recurrence and the need of major/minor amputation. Results: At 2-years of follow up, 76 limbs (56.3%) showed complete wound healing without recurrence, however, wound development occurred at other sites on the same foot following complete primary healing in 11 limbs (8.1%). Tolerable wounds persisted or wounds recurred at the same site in 30 limbs (22.2%), and 18 limbs (13.3%) needed major amputations. Independent factors that prevented wound healing without recurrence at 2 years were renal insufficiency (HR = 0.225, 95% C.I. = 0.091-0.556, p = 0.001), ankle pressure < 50 mmHg or flat forefoot PVR (HR = 0.328, 95% C.I. = 0.124-0.867, p = 0.025) and functional performance < 4 metabolic equivalents (MET) (HR = 0.150, 95% C.I. = 0.063-0.360, p < 0.001). Conclusion: Wound outcome classifications showed detailed information regarding clinical outcomes in patients with ischemic tissue loss. Renal insufficiency, ischemia grade 3 and poor functional performance were independent risk factors that prevented wound healing.
