Conclusion

Endo adequate if inline

flow acheived

Definitions

• Direct Perfusion/Revascularization

• Open line from aorta to the artery supplying the wound angiosome (Lida)

• Heel and forefoot are PT (Alexandrescu)

• The angiosome artery revascularizedmatches that of the foot loss (Attinger)

• Little consensus when wounds span more than one angiosome

Open vs. Endo

What about the wound?

The WIfI Classification

The WIfI ClassificationValidation

The WIfI Classification

Definitions

• Compare predictive ability of WIfI classification vs

direct angiosome perfusion for wound healing

• Direct Angiosome Perfusion

– Any artery supplying the angiosome was patent or

revascularized

• Pedal arch patency (Rutherford)

– 0: Widely patent with retrograde flow

– 1: Widely patent without retrograde flow

– 2: Diseased or partially occluded pedal arch

– 3: Little or no pedal arch

Primary Outcome

• Wound Healing at one year

• Management

– Angiography with intent to perform

revascularization, preferentially direct

– Perfusion optimized if no direct options

– Debridement, local wound care, minor amputation

Conclusion

• More severe WIfI wounds were 23% less

likely to heal at 1 year.

• While direct angiosome perfusion was not

related to wound healing, it may be important

for higher WIfI stage wounds.

• WIfI classification has broad applicability.

• WIfI stage should be standard inclusion in all

future angiosome studies.
