title: [Test for evaluating diagnostic discriminative function for assessment of blood supply to the lower limbs in patients with atherosclerosis].
abstract: Discriminative mathematical function was used for the classification of patients with atherosclerosis in the lower limbs. Considering 8 features of the blood supply to the lower limbs, 500 patients selected from the Polish centres of vascular surgery were classified according to the degree of ischemia. This mathematical analysis and classification proved to be comparable with clinical assessment. Described method is an example of the use of the mathematic tool which is particularly useful in the analysis of large groups of patients.
