%X The study retrospectively evaluated the association between rehabilitative outcomes and risk of peripheral revascularizations in elderly peripheral artery disease (PAD) patients with claudication. Eight-hundred thirty-five patients were enrolled. Ankle-brachial index (ABI) and maximal walking speed (Smax) were measured at baseline and at discharge from a structured home-based rehabilitation program. For the analysis, patients were divided according to a baseline ABI value (severe: ≤0.5; moderate: ≥0.5) and according to hemodynamic or functional rehabilitative response (responder: ABI ≥0.10 and/or Smax >0.5 km/h). Three-year outcomes were collected from the regional registry. According to the inclusion criteria (age 60⁻80, ABI 0.5 km/h). Three-year outcomes were collected from the regional registry. According to the inclusion criteria (age 60⁻80, ABI
