Boyd’s classification of Claudication
Grade I – pain after walking, if continued walking pain subsides.
Grade II – Pain still persists on continuing walking, but can walk with
effort.
Grade III – Takes rest to relieve pain.
CAUSES
1. Arterial
2. Neurogenic
3. Venous
15-03-2018 15
GANGRENE
1. Dry gangrene
2. Wet gangrene
3. Gas Gangrene
Organs in which gangrene may
develop – Appendix, Bowel, Gall
Bladder, Testis, Pancreas.
Specific types:
1. Diabetic Gangrene
2. Bedsores
3. Frostbite
15-03-2018 16
Ankle brachial pressure Index
Ratio of systolic pressure in ankle to systolic pressure in arm. Highest
value is taken.
Normal – 1.0
<0.9 – claudication
<0.5 – rest pain
<0.3 – imminent necrosis.
