Acute limb ischemia (ALI) is a vascular emergency (“limb attack” similar to heart attack but affects the limb rather than the heart) in which the arterial blood supply to one or more extremities is critically reduced. Blood clots are responsible for the majority of cases. The typical signs and symptoms of ALI include PAIN, pallor, pulselessness, poikilothermia (COLDNESS), paralysis (WEAKNESS), and paresthesia (NUMBNESS) of the affected limb. Management involves urgent revascularization, failing which the limb will inevitably progress to gangrene and requires amputation.
