Incidence of Diagnostic Error in Peripheral Vascular Disease Among Primary Care Physicians
In Canada, vascular surgeons are also vascular specialists, because there does not exist a corresponding medical specialist who manages vascular disease. They are responsible for the diagnosis, medical, surgical and endovascular management of peripheral vascular disease. With an aging population, this places a large burden on the vascular surgeon. It is postulated that many referrals sent to the vascular surgeon are a misdiagnosis from the referring physician. As such, this report sets out to evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of primary care physicians when diagnosing peripheral vascular disease.

Future Demands for Vascular Care: A Census-Based Analysis
The 2016 Canadian Census identified the age group of 65 and older as making up a larger population percentage than those aged 15  years and younger. This demographic shift, as well as the information revolution, may impact the demand for vascular services and vascular disease management. The aims of this study are to (1) identify the national/provincial population size, (2) link population to vascular disease data, and (3) l ink disease data to resource requirements.

Physiologic Response Predicts Freedom From Reintervention More Accurately Than Angiogram Following Endovascular Revascularization for Peripheral Vascular Disease
Endovascular therapy (EVT) is emerging as the primary treatment modality for peripheral vascular disease (PVD). Unfortunately, EVT has a limited success rate and high rate of reintervention. We investigated the association between hemodynamic changes, clinical improvement, and the need for re-intervention, after EVT for PVD.

Trends in Operative Case Volumes of Canadian Vascular Surgery Trainees
Vascular surgery has evolved with increasing use of endovascular therapies and a decline in open surgery. The influence of these changes, in addition to a new vascular surgery training program introduced in 2012, on case volumes of vascular trainees is not known. We sought to evaluate trends in operative case volumes of Canadian vascular surgery trainees.

Who are the Vascular Society Presidents?
We noted distinct differences between the demographics among the presidents of various vascular societies. In order to help characterize these among the present US, Canadian, and European vascular societies, we queried the websites for the US, Canadian and European vascular societies in a systematic review for the names of their presidents since their respective inceptions.
