  • acute limb ischemia,
  • prior surgical bypass or angioplasty (with or without stent) on the target artery,

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Primary patency12 months

Evaluations will be conducted after 3, 6 and 12 months of the procedure. The ultrasonographic evaluation of the degree of stenosis will use the Systolic Velocity Index (division of the velocity of flow at the point of greatest stenosis by the velocity of flow in normal prior segment). Rates higher than 2.4 indicate stenosis greater than 50%

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Death12 months

Death rate evaluated in 3, 6 and 12 months

Acute myocardial infarct12 months

Acute myocardial infarct rate evaluated in 3, 6 and 12 months

Ankle braquial Index12 months

Change in the Ankle braquial Index evaluated in 3, 6 and 12 months

Target Lesion Revascularization12 months

Target Lesion Revascularization rate evaluated in 3, 6 and 12 months

Rutherford classification12 months

Change in classification from Rutherford evaluated in 3, 6 and 12 months.

Stent fracture12 months

Stent fracture rate evaluated in 3, 6 and 12 months

Amputation12 months

Major amputation defined as amputation that requires prosthesis
