Change in Ankle-Brachial Index (ABI)
Change in Ankle-Brachial Index (ABI) is calculated as the difference between the ABI values at baseline and at follow-up visits. ABI is measured using a Doppler ultrasound or Oscillo metric method to assess peripheral arterial function. A change of ≥0.1 in ABI values from baseline to follow-up is considered clinically significant. The data presented in the Outcome Measure table reflects the percentage of participants who experienced a significant change in ABI from baseline.

Walking Impairment Questionnaire - Patient Perceived Change in Walking Difficulty
The WIQ (Walking Impairment Questionnaire) score is a numerical representation of a person's walking capacity, derived from their responses to a series of questions about walking difficulty. Individuals are asked to rate degree of difficulty of various activities with responses ranging from 0 (lowest possible function) to 4 (highest possible function). Questions within each category are based on degree of difficulty, according to approximate number of feet, stairs, or miles per hour for distance, stair-climbing, and speed scores, respectively. Scores are then divided by maximum number of points and presented on a scale of 0% to 100%, where 0% represents lowest possible score (i.e., answering "unable" for all questions in that category) and 100% represents the highest possible score (i.e., indicating "none" with regard to difficulty for all questions in that category). A higher score indicates less difficulty with walking, while a lower score signifies greater difficulty with walking.
Measured: Pre-Procedure to 6 months and 12 months
Walking Impairment Questionnaire - Patient Perceived Change in Walking Speed
The WIQ (Walking Impairment Questionnaire) score is a numerical representation of a person's walking capacity, derived from their responses to a series of questions about walking difficulty. Individuals are asked to rate the degree of difficulty of various activities with responses ranging from 0 (lowest possible function) to 4 (highest possible function). Questions within each category are based on the degree of difficulty, according to the approximate number of feet, stairs, or miles per hour for the distance, stair-climbing, and speed scores, respectively. Scores are then divided by the maximum number of points and presented on a scale of 0% to 100%, where 0%represents the lowest possible score (i.e., answering "unable" for all questions in that category) and 100% represents the highest possible score (i.e., indicating "none" with regard to difficulty for all questions in that category). Higher scores signify less difficulty in maintaining speed while walking.

Walking Test: Change in Walking Distance
The Walking Test is a standard test used to evaluate functionality in patients with peripheral artery disease (PAD). This test measures the distance that a patient can quickly walk on a flat, hard surface in a period of 6 minutes.

Treadmill Test: Change in Walking Distance
Treadmill walking test is a standard test used to evaluate functionality in patients with peripheral artery disease (PAD).

Change in Rutherford Classification
Participants were graded using the Rutherford Classification, which stages PAD based on symptoms and clinical findings.
Class 0 asymptomatic , normal treadmill or reactive hyperemia test. Class 1 mild claudication completes treadmill exercise; AP after exercise > 50 mm Hg but at least 20 mm Hg lower than resting value.
Class 2-3 more severe symptoms cannot complete standard treadmill exercise, and AP after exercise < 50 mm Hg.
Class 4 critical limb ischemia resting AP < 40 mm Hg, flat or barely pulsatile ankle or metatarsal PVR; TP < 30 mm Hg.
Class 5 minor tissue loss-nonhealing ulcer, focal gangrene with diffuse pedal ischemia and resting AP < 60 mm Hg, ankle or metatarsal PVR flat or barely pulsatile; TP < 40 mm Hg. The lower the RB Class the better the outcome.
