|---|---|---|
| Primary Efficacy Endpoint - Mean Reduction in Percent Stenosis | Day 1 | The primary efficacy endpoint target was a mean reduction in percent stenosis of greater than 20% in each study participating at the time of the procedure by Angiographic Core Lab assessment after Turbo-Elite use. A participant showing a mean reduction of 20% was considered a success for the primary efficacy endpoint. |
| Primary Safety Endpoint is Freedom From Major Adverse Event (MAE) | 30 day follow-up | The primary safety endpoint target was 80% of study participant with freedom from a Major Adverse Event (MAE) through 30 day follow-up. A MAE was defined as: all cause death, major amputation in the target limb, or target lesion revascularization. |

|---|---|---|
| Ankle-Brachial Index (ABI) Change From Baseline to 30 Days. | Baseline and 30 Days post-procedure | ABI will be assessed at baseline and within 30 days of the procedure. The ABI is calculated ratio of the highest ankle blood pressure to the highest arm blood pressure. The ABI is a non-invasive tool for screening for Peripheral Artery Disease. |
| Final Procedure Residual Stenosis After All Therapy | Day 1 | A Final Procedure Residual Stenosis by visual assessment after all therapy will be accessed acutely during the procedure. |

| Rutherford Class (RCC) Change | Baseline and 30 days of procedure | Rutherford Class (RCC) will be assessed at baseline and within 30 days of the procedure. The Rutherford-Becker Clinical Categories (RCC) are a classification system of chronic limb ischemia ranging from 0 (asymptomatic; no hemodynamically significant occlusive disease) to 6 (major tissue loss, extending above transmetatarsal level, functional foot no longer salvageable). Lower categories represent better clinical status. |

Outcome results
Primary Efficacy Endpoint - Mean Reduction in Percent Stenosis
The primary efficacy endpoint target was a mean reduction in percent stenosis of greater than 20% in each study participating at the time of the procedure by Angiographic Core Lab assessment after Turbo-Elite use. A participant showing a mean reduction of 20% was considered a success for the primary efficacy endpoint.
Time frame: Day 1
Population: The analysis set is composed of 43 patients, data for primary efficacy analysis was available only for 42 participants.

Primary Safety Endpoint is Freedom From Major Adverse Event (MAE)
The primary safety endpoint target was 80% of study participant with freedom from a Major Adverse Event (MAE) through 30 day follow-up. A MAE was defined as: all cause death, major amputation in the target limb, or target lesion revascularization.

Ankle-Brachial Index (ABI) Change From Baseline to 30 Days.

Time frame: Baseline and 30 Days post-procedure
Population: Although 43 patients were part of the analysis set, ABI is one of the most often missed assessments during baseline and the follow-up period. Only 40 participants had available ABI data.
