Cohort study investigates peripheral vascular intervention use for claudication in Medicare beneficiaries, highlighting temporal trends and practice variations.

However, there are limited data on longitudinal practice patterns. We aimed to describe the temporal trends and charges associated with PVI use for claudication over the past 12 years in the United States.
