Live Monthly Discussion For Complex Case Studies & CLI Complications

Our Society's mission is to improve quality of life by preventing amputations and death due to Critical Limb Ischemia.

In many cases there are other options available for patients with CLI. This society collaborates with a coalition of like-minded organizations that share an interest in CLI to address treatment, outcomes, coding, and reimbursement to globally improve care and provide options for those with CLI. We do this through awareness, education and by sharing our experiences and resources through members of this society.

Help us educate patients on CLI and let them know that there are often options available.

Among an estimated 9-20 million adults with PAD in the United States, at least 11% suffer from CLI. This is considered an underestimation.

Worldwide, 202 million adults have PAD which has a higher prevalence than ischemic heart disease, heart failure, Alzheimer’s, dementia, cancer, and HIV/AIDS.

Lower extremity PAD manifests as CLI in nearly 1 million Medicare patients per year with an estimated annual cost of over 3 billion dollars.

One in 190 Americans (1.6 million) are living with loss of a limb. Unchecked, this number may more than double by 2050 to 3.6 million.
