    The latter two conditions are jointly referred to as tissue loss, reflecting the development of surface damage to the limb tissue due to the most severe stage of ischemia. Compared to the other manifestation of PAD, intermittent claudication , CLI has a negative prognosis within a year after the initial diagnosis, with 1-year amputation rates ...
