What to know about vascular disease

The vascular system consists of arteries, veins and other vessels that circulate blood throughout the body delivering oxygen and nutrients to tissues and taking away tissue waste matter. The vascular system is also called the circulatory system. Vascular disease includes any condition that affects your circulatory system or system of blood vessels. This ranges from diseases of your arteries, veins and lymph vessels to blood disorders that affect circulation. Vascular disease is a common problem that affects millions of people. If untreated, it can lead to stroke, heart attacks, leg pain and wounds and amputation. 
Surgery performed on veins and arteries away from the heart is referred to as vascular surgery. Vascular disease is a common problem that affects millions of people. If untreated, it can lead to stroke, heart attacks, leg pain and wounds and amputation.  

Our surgeons are board certified and our advanced practice providers are specially trained in vascular care—a depth of experience that provides outstanding care using the latest diagnostic technology and treatments.
There are steps you can take to help prevent vascular disease: 
  • Make healthy lifestyle changes, such as eating healthy and getting the recommended amount of exercise. 
  • Don’t smoke or use tobacco products. If you do use tobacco products, talk to your health care physician or provider about options to quit. 
  • Keep your blood pressure and cholesterol levels within guidelines. 
  • If you have diabetes, control your blood sugar. 
  • Try not to sit or stand for long periods of time. If you do need to sit all day, get up and move around every hour or so. If you are traveling on a long trip, you may want to consider wearing compression stocking and regularly stretching your legs.
Risk factors for vascular disease can vary, depending on the specific disease. Some of the common risk factors include: 
  • Age (your risk of some diseases goes up as you age). 
  • Conditions that can affect the heart and blood vessels, such as diabetes or high cholesterol. 
  • Family history of vascular or heart disease. 
  • Infection or injury that damages your veins. 
  • Lack of exercise. 
  • Obesity. 
  • Pregnancy. 
  • Sitting or standing still for long periods of time. 
  • Smoking.
