Personalizing Thromboprophylaxis for Patients With Peripheral Artery Disease
The goal of this clinical trial is to determine whether a personalised blood clot prevention plan is more effective than standard treatment in adults with peripheral artery disease (PAD) who have undergone a procedure to restore blood flow to their legs.
The main questions it aims to answer are:
* Does the personalized plan lower the rate of blood clots in the treated leg one year after the procedure?
* Does the personalized plan lower rates of amputation, repeat procedures, bleeding, and death compared to standard treatment?
Researchers will compare the personalized TARGET plan which uses a blood test to tailor each person's blood clot prevention medication to the standard treatment to see if the personalized approach works better.
Participants will:
* Be randomly assigned to either the personalized TARGET plan or standard treatment after their procedure
* Have blood tests at 1 week and at 1, 3, 6, 9, and 12 months after their procedure
* Have medications adjusted based on blood test results if assigned to the TARGET group
