Preferred Name

Peripheral vascular disease

Definitions
This concept is primitive because within clinical practice it is used in different contexts to refer to both arteries and veins of the periphery or exclusively of peripheral arteries and sometimes to describe just occlusive disease of the peripheral arteries. More detailed unambiguous concepts are available for these more specific interpretations.
Synonyms
Peripheral vascular disease (disorder)
PVD - peripheral vascular disease
