Association Between Neighborhood Socioeconomic Deprivation and Likelihood Of Lower Extremity Arterial Revascularization Versus Amputation

Previous studies suggest that median household income is a major determinant of the likelihood of amputation versus revascularization on a national level. It has recently been postulated that it is not primarily income but overall socioeconomic deprivation that influences this disparity. We undertook this study to determine the effect of socioeconomic deprivation on the likelihood of revascularization versus amputation on a statewide level.
