What is Vascular Disease?

Healthy blood flow is essential to healing and overall well being. Vascular disease refers to a range of conditions that affect the circulatory system, especially the arteries and veins or lymphatic system. When blood vessels become narrowed or blocked, blood flow can be reduced and symptoms such as pain, swelling, non-healing wounds, or ulcers may follow.

Common Vascular Conditions Include:

  • Atherosclerosis
  • Coronary Artery Disease (CAD)
  • Peripheral Artery Disease (PAD)
  • Carotid Artery Disease
  • Hypertension
  • Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT)
  • Varicose Veins

Early diagnosis and treatment are critical to preventing complications and improving long-term outcomes.

Our Treatments

We offer a full range of surgical and non-surgical treatments to relieve pain, restore function, and support your long-term recover.

Vascular Interventions

Preventing, diagnosing, and treating diseases of the arterial, venous, and lymphatic system is a specialty known as Vascular Medicine, often an option for treating vascular disease. Vascular specialists provide comprehensive care for patients with vein and vascular conditions, including high-risk patients.

Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBO)

Hyperbaric oxygen therapy increases the amount of oxygen carried in the blood, supporting wound healing and fighting infection. HBO promotes the formation of new blood vessels and is often used for chronic, non-healing wounds.

Wound Care

Advanced wound management may include specialized dressings, topical therapies, medications, debridement, and advanced technologies such as hyperbaric oxygen and negative pressure therapy.

Non-Surgical Treatments and Rehabilitation

Nonsurgical options may include compression therapy, medications, physical therapy, lifestyle modifications, and minimally invasive procedures designed to improve circulation with minimal recovery time.

Limb Preservation Program

Our Limb Preservation Program is designed for patients at high risk of amputation due to severe vascular disease or chronic wounds. A dedicated, multidisciplinary team develops a customized treatment plan focused on restoring blood flow, promoting healing, and preserving limb function.

Limb Preservation

Our Limb Preservation Program brings together interventional radiologists, vascular surgeons, orthopedic specialists, and wound care experts to treat patients at high risk of amputation. As part of that care, wound care specialists determine whether patients may benefit from hyperbaric oxygen therapy or services offered through our Wound and Hyperbaric Center.

Disease and Amputation

When a limb has deteriorated to the point where it can no longer heal, it becomes a health hazard and requires amputation. There are a few conditions that may cause this, and most of them can be identified in the occurrence of a non-healing wound.

Diabetes

One of the possible side effects of diabetes is cardiovascular disease and poor circulation. If you have diabetes and stop feeling sensations in one of your extremities, it may mean blood has stopped flowing to the area. Any area that cannot feel pain is dangerous as it can suffer a wound and get infected without the person realizing it until it’s too late, thus amputation is required to prevent a potentially life-threatening condition.

Poor Circulation

Cardiovascular disease can cause your arteries to narrow, making it difficult for blood to flow to extremities.

Without blood, your body does not receive the oxygen
and nutrients it needs to survive and the tissues will begin to die.

Tumors

If a tumor grows on a bone or muscle and does not respond to treatment, amputation may be the only means to remove it. Our team works to prevent this by applying treatment quickly and diligently monitoring the tumor so we can decide if amputation is necessary or not before the cancer has a chance to spread.

Infected Wounds

When a wound gets infected, it needs to be carefully monitored for signs of infection. Without proper antibiotics and treatment, the tissue will die and require amputation.
