Screening and Access to Health Care for Vascular Disease in Urban and Suburban Patient Populations
This is a pilot study designed to validate our methods of recruitment, screening and data
collection in the community. The project will help to establish the feasibility of the study
design to lay the groundwork for a potentially larger study. The final study will allow us
to estimate the incidence and prevalence of abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA), carotid artery
stenosis, and peripheral artery disease (PAD) in different geographic areas in a large urban
setting, as well as determine patient access to healthcare and treatment for vascular
disease as related to geographic and racial differences.
