What this trial studies

This observational study aims to assess the effectiveness of exercise testing in patients suspected of having Peripheral Artery Disease (PAD). It is a non-interventional, prospective, cross-sectional study conducted at a single center, where data from patients referred to the vascular unit for exercise testing will be collected and analyzed. The study focuses on understanding exercise limitations in these patients to improve diagnostic and treatment approaches.
