Standardized Vascular Rehabilitation Program to Improve Patient Disease and Quality of Life

Vascular rehabilitation is a supervised exercise therapy program that includes healthy lifestyle changes to help patients gain strength, energy and confidence to return to daily activities. A program of supervised exercise rehabilitation is considered a primary treatment for people with Peripheral Artery Disease and Intermittent Claudication. In addition, patients will be given a wrist-worn activity tracker and be in contact with a research coordinator every 3 months after they are discharged from the Vascular Rehab program.
