results from year 7 assessment indicated that peroneal arteries were more affected by PAD than other pedal arteries. however, these findings may be influenced by various factors such as difficulties encountered in measuring the ABI of the peroneal artery in some patients. Failure to detect the peroneal artery could be attributable to the presence of PAD or inadequate technique. Furthermore, assessing PAD progression in the peroneal arteries of the diabetic population was difficult because ankle pressure readings for these arteries were not taken in year 1 assessment.
