Peripheral Artery Disease (ICD-10 code I73. 9) is estimated to affect 12 to 20% of Americans age 65 and older with as many as 75% of that group being asymptomatic (Rogers et al, 2011). Of note, for the purposes of this clinical flyer the term peripheral vascular disease (PVD) is used synonymously with PAD.
Peripheral vascular disease (PVD) is a slow and progressive circulation disorder. Narrowing, blockage, or spasms in a blood vessel can cause PVD. PVD may affect any blood vessel outside of the heart including the arteries, veins, or lymphatic vessels.

9 Peripheral vascular disease, unspecified.
PVD occurs when disease affects any of the vessels outside of your heart, wherever they happen to be — in your arms, legs, brain or anywhere else. A common type of PVD is venous insufficiency, which occurs when the valves in the leg veins don't shut properly during blood's return to the heart.
It's pretty simple, actually: Peripheral artery disease (PAD) is the name of one specific disease, a condition that affects only arteries, and primarily the arteries of the legs. Peripheral vascular disease (PVD) is a generic “umbrella term” that describes a large number of circulatory diseases.
1,2 “Peripheral arterial disease (PAD),” “peripheral vascular disease (PVD)”, “spasm of artery” and “intermittent claudication” are coded as I73. 9. It is important to note that this code excludes atherosclerosis of the extremities (I70. 2- – I70.
I70. 212 - Atherosclerosis of native arteries of extremities with intermittent claudication, left leg. ICD-10-CM.
Claudication is pain in the legs or arms that occurs while walking or using the arms. The pain is caused by too little blood flow to the legs or arms. Claudication is usually a symptom of peripheral artery disease, in which the arteries that supply blood to the arms or legs, usually the legs, are narrowed.

Atherosclerosis of native arteries of the extremities ICD-10-CM I70. 219 is grouped within Diagnostic Related Group(s) (MS-DRG v39.0): 299 Peripheral vascular disorders with mcc. 300 Peripheral vascular disorders with cc.
Intermittent claudication is pain affecting the calf, and less commonly the thigh and buttock, that is induced by exercise and relieved by rest. Symptom severity varies from mild to severe. Intermittent claudication occurs as a result of muscle ischaemia during exercise caused by obstruction to arterial flow.
When blood vessels in the body become blocked or narrowed, blood flow can be obstructed and blood clots can develop into a condition known as peripheral vascular disease (PVD). If left untreated, PVD can lead to serious life and limb threatening complications.
Medications prescribed to treat PVD improve blood flow; these include anticoagulants (which prevent blood clots), beta blockers (which slow heart rate and lower pressure), and cilostazol (which relaxes arteries and allows them to enlarge).
People often think PVD is a normal part of aging and that nothing can be done about it. Others think the only solution is surgery. But surgery is only one of several effective treatments available.
