Temporal and Geographic Trends in the Treatment of Peripheral Arterial Disease Stratified by Race Among Medicare Beneficiaries
These findings suggest that higher proportions of Black patients than White patients undergo invasive procedures for PAD, with considerable variation across states. Although the proportional difference in major amputations has narrowed over time, the persistent proportional excess of major amputations among Black patients requires further study to investigate whether this difference reflects remediable disparities in care.
