[The principles of care for patients with intermittent claudication].
Patients with claudication have a high cardiovascular risk and, foremost, require an introduction of the appropriate procedures to stop the progression of the disease and to prevent cardiovascular events as if these were patients with a coronary or cerebrovascular disease. To manage the claudication-associated complaints, surgery and endovascular revascularization procedures, exercise therapy and vasoactive agents with proven clinical efficacy are used.
