This year’s Vascular Day offers both a refresher for past attendees and valuable new insights, practical strategies, and clinical tips for those joining us for the first time. With a focus on PAD, referral pathways, and hands-on vascular assessment, the course is designed to strengthen podiatrists' confidence in managing complex vascular presentations.

Key Themes and Highlights of the Program
(The program will be published shortly)
Suspecting PAD or CLTI? Learn to assess patients in under 10 minutes using the 3Ps (Pulses, Phases, Pressures), WIFI classification, and practical tools like ABPI, ankle/toe pressures, and Doppler waveforms.
From Sound to Strategy: Understand when ABPI is helpful—and when it’s not—especially in diabetes. Sharpen your skills with real-world Doppler audio clips and interactive PAD/CLTI case-based discussions.
Wound Healing Starts with Vascular Clarity – Learn how to link vascular status to wound outcomes using the WiFi classification, and spot ischaemia as a key factor in delayed healing.
New This Year: Vascular Assessment Templates – Discover practical tools for documenting and interpreting vascular findings to support confident, evidence-based decisions in clinical practice.
