Is transcutaneous oxygen and carbon dioxide monitoring indispensable in short- and long-term therapeutic management of non-reconstructable lower critical limb ischemia?

The aim of this study was to evaluate the capacity of transcutaneous partial pressure of O(2) (TCpO(2)) and CO(2) (TCpCO(2)) to predict clinical response to pharmacological treatment in short- and long-term follow-up of unreconstructable critical limb ischemia (CLI) treated with prostanoids; to sugg...
