ABSTRACT
Objective. Find the prevalence of the peripheral arterial disease in Mexican patients from the Hospital
Regional Lic. Adolfo López Mateos, ISSSTE.
Material and methods. This study included patients from 50 years and older without diagnosis of
peripheral arterial disease, data about chronic diseases was recorded: diabetes, hypertension and smoking.
The Edinburgh questionnaire for peripheral arterial disease was used and the ankle-arm index in those
with a positive result in the questionnaire was the confirmatory test.
Results. A total of 300 patients were included in this study with a mean age of 65.9 years old (SD
9.46), 142 men and 158 women, the general prevalence of peripheral arterial disease was 7.66% (n =
23). In men the prevalence was 8.45% (n = 12) and in women 6.9% (n = 11). In the sick patients the
mean age was 68.1 (DE 9.30). The prevalence of the most representative risk factors was 37.3% of smokers in general, while 47.8% in the patients with peripheral arterial disease. Diabetes had a prevalence
of 41.66 in the general group and 78.26% in the PAD group. Hypertension was prevalent in 37.33
of the whole group of patients and in 39.13% of the PAD patients.
Conclusions. The prevalence of PAD in this study is slightly greater than in the literature reports. The
main risk factors identified for our studied population were the male sex, advanced age, smoking and
diabetes.
