The Reduction of Atherothrombosis for Continued Health (REACH) registry reported that 1 out of 6 patients had multi-vascular bed involvement. Progression of PAD to critical limb ischaemia (CLI) is seen in 1 % of affected patients per year, but patients who progress to CLI may have a 10- to 15-fold increased risk of cardiovascular death.The 2019 ECS/EAS guidelines for the management of dyslipidaemias have suggested that for primary or secondary prevention in very high risk, patients should follow a therapeutic regimen that achieves >50 % LDL-C reduction from baseline and an LDL-C goal of |
