Title: Peripheral Vascular Disease

 

Scenario: A 57-year-old male is admitted to the cardia telemetry floor following a cardiac catheterization and RCA stenting. The need for catheterization was determined based on the results of a pharmacological stress test ordered as part of a workup for intermittent complaints of chest pain. The client’s past medical history is significant for hyperlipidemia, 20 pack/year smoking history, and obesity. The nurse is preparing the patient to ambulate when he states “I hope I can make it! My left leg hurts terribly after walking for a few minutes, but it usually feels better when I rest.” The nurse proceeds with an examination of the lower extremities based on the client’s statement. Examination reveals:

+1, left pedal pulse
Capillary refill 5 seconds left great toe, 3 seconds right great toe
Hair loss noted on the bilat lower legs
BP 122/74
