Critical Limb Ischemia

    is a blockage caused in the arteries of the lower
    extremities, which reduces blood-flow in that
    particular body part.
  • CLI is an advanced stage of peripheral artery
    disease (PAD) and is defined as ischemic rest
    pain, arterial insufficiency ulcers, and
    gangrene.
  • CLI can results in severe pain in the feet or

    resting.
