title="Rehabilitation of patients after acute lower limb ischaemia",
abstract="Acute limb ischaemia is a sudden deterioration or lack of blood flow to a limb, potentially causing the risk of losing it. The main symptom is pain and weakness or lack of active movement of the foot and toes, i.e. motor paralysis. The gold standard in the treatment of patients with acute limb ischaemia is surgical treatment. Revascularisation is followed by rehabilitation, which includes early verticalisation and mobilisation, including breathing and antithrombotic exercises. In case of a so-called foot drop complication, the rehabilitation plan includes the following: passive exercises, passive remedial exercises, self-assisted exercises, resistance exercises, kinesiotaping, gait training, as well as protecting the ankle with an orthosis to prevent the paralysed foot from dropping.",
