Inclusion criteria

Inclusion criteria: •Intermittent claudication according to a psoitive Rose-Edingburgh questionnaire •Rest ankel-brachial pressure index (ABPI)

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
The clinical outcome (i.e. degree of rehabilitation) is expressed in terms of change in maximal and pain free walking distance and quality-of-life. The pain free walking distance will be measured conform the guidelines of the 'inter-society consensus for the management of peripheral arterial disease (TASC II). Following this protocol, the primaire outcome measure consists of the walking distance up until claudicationpain arises.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Changes in painfree walking distance before, after 3 and 6 months of therapy will be related to changes in micro- and macrovasculair adaptations that have been found on MRI assessments. MRI measures will be the degree of stenosis, collateralization, bulk blood flow to the common femoral artery, microvascular blood flow (expressed as Ktrans in mL/min/cm3) and dynamics of oxygen delivery during reactive hyperemia.
