Abstract

The article presents a review of the literature on the relationship of peripheral artery diseases and cardiovascular complications. According to modern concepts, peripheral artery diseases are classified as markers of very high cardiovascular risk. The most important aspect of the therapy of patients in this category, in addition to correcting specific symptoms of vascular lesions of the lower extremities, is to reduce the risk of developing cardiovascular diseases and their prevention, and treatment of patients in this category should be carried out in accordance with the recommendations for secondary prevention of cardiovascular complications, the most important part of which is the control of serum lipids. Statins are the most widely used class of drugs for the correction of hypercholesterolemia, but the frequency of their appointment as a strategically important class of drugs to prevent the development of atherosclerotic cardiovascular complications in high- and very high-risk individuals in the Russian Federation, as in other countries, remains low. The basic principles of lipid-lowering therapy in patients with peripheral artery diseases are described: strategies, goals and issues of therapy control.
