Hi all,

I have a patient who exhibits intermittent claudication-like symptoms. However, I very much doubt it's intermittent claudication. This is due to her age, health status and triphasic pedal waveforms.
To properly assess exertional leg pain I believe you need to exert (ie: walk) until pain develops and retest.
My question is, can this be done in an averge podiatry clinic with a doppler and treadmill? And if so, what change in the waveforms constitutes pathology?
Thanks in advance.
Rebecca
