Case Study

Robert, an 80-year-old retiree with underlying vascular issues, had been grappling with non-healing ischemic ulcers on his foot for an extended period.

Ischemic ulcers are caused by poor blood flow to the affected area:

  • They often occur due to conditions like peripheral artery disease.

  • It is estimated that around 1% to 3% of individuals with peripheral artery disease will develop ischemic ulcers.
