Trends and Factors Associated With Peripheral Vascular Interventions for the Treatment of Claudication From 2011 to 2022: A National Medicare Cohort Study

Previous cross-sectional studies have identified wide practice pattern variations in the use of peripheral vascular interventions (PVIs) for the treatment of claudication. 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.
