The findings on examination show:

  • General signs of underlying cardiovascular disease as a result of smoking, including hypertension, reduced oxygen saturations, nicotine staining.
  • Unilateral absent pulses below the level of the femoral artery suggest SFA disease
  • Reduced sensation of feet bilaterally in keeping with diabetic neuropathy

Urinalysis: glucose on urine dip suggests poorly controlled diabetes on his current regime
