Abstract 13474: Rivaroxaban Reduces Major Cardiovascular and Limb Events in Patients With the High-risk Triad of Chronic Kidney Disease, Peripheral Artery Disease and Recent Lower Extremity Revascularization: Insights From VOYAGER PAD
Abstract
Introduction:
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is common among patients undergoing lower extremity revascularization (LER) for peripheral artery disease (PAD) and identifies a population at high risk for adverse outcomes. The VOYAGER PAD trial demonstrated the efficacy of rivaroxaban in PAD patients after LER on a composite of cardiovascular (CV) and limb ischemic events (HR 0.85 vs placebo, 95% CI 0.76-0.96; p=0.009); this …
