N2 - Background: Peripheral arterial disease (PAD) predicts cardiovascular and cerebrovascular ischemic events. PAD treatment is aimed at reducing clinical symptoms, local tissue loss and at preventing complications. Aims:To evaluated the effect of peridural analgesia on peripheral perfusion and pain control. Methods: In 280 diabetic subjects with severe limb ischemia (65.7% males and 34.3% females, mean age 59.3±14.4 years) with a failure of medical treatment and contraindications to endovascular and/or surgical reperfusion, we performed a 30-day long peridural ropivacaine infusion, monitoring blood pressure, VAS and ABI periodically. Results: During ropivacaine infusion VAS significantly decreased (from 4.06±0.343 to 1.96±0.413, p
