The COPART (COhorte de Patients ARTeriopathes) can be used to evaluate a patient with peripheral arterial disease.
Patient selection: peripheral arterial disease
Parameters:
(1) age in years
(2) history of myocardial infarction
(3) C-reactive protein (CRP) in mg/L
(4) ankle to brachial index (ABI)
(5) estimated GFR in mL per min per 1.73 square meter
(6) medications with antiplatelet agents, statins and RAS inhibitors
