Summary
Sodium nitrite has been demonstrated to promote new blood vessel growth, speed up wound
healing and prevent tissue necrosis in animals. Since patients with PAD experience many of
these problems, this study will seek to determine whether this drug, when given orally, could
provide the same benefits to patients with PAD.
