Article Abstract
The European Society of Cardiology (ESC) guidelines on peripheral arterial disease (PAD) and diseases of the aorta published in September 2024 for the first time combine recommendations for both diseases in a joint guideline document. The consolidation of PAD and aorta guidelines follows a holistic approach, which underlines the entirety of the arterial vascular system. This aim is underlined by a specifically introduced recommendation to take the entirety of the circulatory system into account in patients with vascular diseases. The focus in the current ESC guideline document is on a multidisciplinary, patient-centered management of PAD and diseases of the aorta, whereby the prevention and follow-up of patients after therapeutic interventions are emphasized. In PAD the document highlights exercise training and the procedure for patients with chronic wounds as well as risk stratification and hereditary diseases of the aorta.
