This research trial will test whether using carbon dioxide as a contrast medium during surgery to open blocked leg arteries can prevent kidney injury. One in five people over 55 in the UK suffer with narrowing or blockages in their leg arteries, which is called peripheral arterial disease. It leads to poor leg circulation, which can cause leg gangrene or infection. Sometimes this may even lead to major lower limb amputation. To prevent this from happening, the affected arteries can be opened using endovascular revascularisation. These procedures are the most…
