Patient factors associated with activation level in peripheral artery disease
Many participants were activated, demonstrated adequate FHL, and scored well on the PAD knowledge test. The remaining 27.5% were inactivated, which was associated with poor PAD knowledge and certain demographic characteristics. Future studies should focus on developing and implementing patient-centric educational interventions for inactivated patients and strategies to increase activation.
