Drugs for Peripheral Vascular Disease
نویسنده
چکیده
Efhe number and complexity of drugs which are capable of producing peripheral vasodilatation are inversely related to their value in the treatment of peripheral vascular disease. More precise knowledge of the disorders of function and of anatomy of the peripheral vascular system has emphasized the importance of reconstructive surgical treatment and outlined the deficiencies in medical methods of treatment. Enthusiasm for vasodilator drugs has waned appreciably, and it has even been suggested that such drugs may actually impair rather than improve the blood flow to ischaemic limbs (Gillespie, 1959). The time is therefore ripe for a critical appraisal of the place and valuje of vasodilator drugs in the treatment of peripheral vascular disorders.

متن کاملThe role of platelets in peripheral vascular disease.
Platelets play a major role in acute ischaemic syndromes and peripheral vascular disease. They are involved in the development and progression of atherosclerosis, native vessel and graft thrombosis. They have a central role in the development of restenosis and reocclusion after peripheral percutaneous transluminal angioplasty. Antiplatelet therapy has been shown to be beneficial in patients und...
