The RECording COurses of vasculaR Diseases registry (RECCORD registry) is an observational, prospective, multicentre, all-comers registry platform.

In the initial phase, patients referred for endovascular revascularization of peripheral artery disease (PAD) of the lower limbs will be prospectively included and followed up for at least one year.

At baseline, data on patients' demographic characteristics, comorbidities, previous peripheral interventions, medication, and clinical stage of PAD (Rutherford category), haemodynamic parameters, and procedural data including complications will be assessed.

Major adverse cardiac and limb events will be recorded at planned (at six and 12 months) and at any unplanned visits.

Inclusion Criteria:

• any type of endovascular interventions for symptomatic PAD
• endovascular intervention for PAD of lower extremities, i.e. below the aorto-iliac bifurcation

Exclusion Criteria:

• patients undergoing hybrid-(surgical and endovascular) and/or surgical interventions for symptomatic PAD
• patients with a life expectancy of <6 months
• endovascular intervention for reasons other than symptomatic PAD

All patients undergoing endovascular revascularization for symptomatic peripheral artery disease of the lower extremities (located distal to the aorto-iliac bifurcation) will be included. The diagnosis of PAD will be derived from ICD-10 codes. Any endovascular procedure that is performed to a specifi c target lesion will be documented as operation and procedure codes (OPS codes) as they are defi ned by the German procedure classifi cation system (version 2015). Informed consent from each patient will be obtained prior to inclusion in the registry.
