Already one of the country’s leading PAD treatment facilities, CardioVascular Health Clinic gained further national recognition when they hosted the team from BackTable, a high-profile medical app exclusively for endovascular specialists, at the Oklahoma City facility in June 2020. CHC’s Dr. Jim Melton and Dr. Blake Parsons then went on to become guest speakers on BackTable’s popular podcast—hosted by BackTable co-founder and practicing interventional radiologist Dr. Aaron Fritts—to discuss their use of the innovative retrograde pedal access procedure. The 90-minute outpatient procedure, commonly referred to as pedal access, is a revolutionary new treatment for preventing critical limb ischemia and restoring blood flow to affected limbs. Listen to the full interview here, or read excerpts from the podcast about retrograde pedal access collaboration, case selection and benefits and pedal access tools, techniques, and tips.
