Pain is a key diagnostic feature of symptomatic PAD and has been linked to disease progression and poor quality of life.

However, the management of acute pain in PAD remains challenging due to the lack of high-quality evidence, the complex pathophysiological mechanisms of pain, and the high comorbidity of patients. On the other hand, inadequate pain control leads to several pathophysiological deviations, such as the aggravated neuroendocrine stress response, which may be detrimental in patients with PAD.
