Abstract
Exercise advice is a well established component of the conservative management of intermittent claudication. Supervised programmes of exercise remain relatively uncommon and are provided mainly in secondary care. This review outlines the evidence for the effectiveness of different exercise regimens and the relative benefits of exercise therapy, where comparisons have been made with medical therapy, angioplasty and surgery.Entities:
