Résumé

Summary: Background: Severity of limb ischemia in peripheral arterial disease (PAD) patients is usually evaluated by clinical assessment and toe blood pressure (TBP) or transcutaneous oxygen pressures (TcPO 2). Indocyanin green angiography (IGA) is a promising tool generating a foot cartography of skin microvascular perfusion. However, there is no consensus about the fluorescence parameters that should be used to evaluate ischemia. The purpose of this cross-sectional evaluation and 3-month clinical follow-up was to determine the best fluorescence parameter for the evaluation of severe PAD, using TBP as reference. Patients and methods: IGA was realized in patients with clinical suspicion of CLI in addition to TBP and TcPO 2. Parameters from the time intensity fluorescence curve measured on the foot were compared with TBP (primary reference), and with TcPO2. Clinical outcomes (amputation, revascularization, death) were recorded at 3 months follow-up. Results: Thirty-four patients were included and IGA could be analysed in 29 of them. When all limbs were studied, no significant correlation was found between any of the measured fluorescence parameters (saturation time, ingress slope, amplitude, delay) and TBP pressure neither TCPO2. In the limbs with CLI, a significant correlation between the TBP and amplitude on the forefoot was found. According to the outcome, none of the fluorescence parameters showed a significant prognostic value in contrast to the significant results for TBP and TcPO2. Conclusions: In this study, quantitative analysis of IGA parameters did not show any prognostic value, nor was there any significant statistical association with well-established prognostic parameters such as TBP and TcPO 2 in patients with suspected CLI. A correlation was found between amplitude and TBP in patients with CLI. Topographical information such as perfusion heterogeneity was not evaluated and remains a valuable target to be investigated.
