Résumé
The vascular causes of lower-extremity ulcers cannot be neglected because they can directly affect treatment methods. No detailed epidemiological statistics have described vascular etiological diagnosis in China. This study aimed to explore the prevalence of clinical vascular etiological examination of lower-extremity ulcers and improve the diagnosis and treatment effectiveness of lower-extremity ulcers. Data were collected from the WoundCareLog database, which includes 2413 cases of lower-extremity ulcers from 478 hospitals nationwide. Data analysis revealed that 1698 (70.4%) lower-extremity blood flow examinations (including physical examination [PE] and assistant examinations [AE]) were performed, of which 61.7% were PE, 10.4% were AE only, and 27.9% were the combined PE and AE[PAE]. The proportion of nonexaminations was higher in the nondiabetic group than in the diabetic group (χ
