Inclusion criteria
Inclusion criteria: PAD are diagnosed by ABI less than 1.0, and patients are classified into Fontaine 1 to 4 degrees at the vascular surgery laboratory, Tokyo Medical and Dental University Hospital. Participants in this study must be aged 20 years or more. All patients are required to be able to walk by themselves. Patients of Fontaine 3 or 4 undergo vascular intervention therapy, thereafter, they entry this study, if they meet at least one of conditions as follows (1)ankle pressure more than 30 mm Hg (2)toe pressure more than 30 mm Hg (3)tcPO2 more than 30 mm Hg (4)SPP more than 40 mm Hg.
Exclusion criteria
Exclusion criteria: Those that fall under any of the following conditions are not considered. 1) At the time of obtaining consent, the age is under 20 2) Patients with severe heart disease or who are in shock (systolic blood pressure less than 90 mmHg) 3) Patients who have severe respiratory illness and require oxygen inhalation or ventilator management 4) Patients with severe liver disease (AST (GOT) or ALT (GTP)> 100 U) 5) Women who may be pregnant or have a possibility of pregnancy 6) Women who are breastfeeding 7) Difficult cases of self-determination right (dementia, consciousness disturbance, etc.) 8) Patients who are difficult to walk (Caused by outside of vascular disease or orthopedic disease, etc.) 9) Patients judged unsuitable as research subjects by Research doctors
