        @onan Prehospital care for PVD involves the basics: control ABCs (airway, breathing, circulation), obtain intravenous access, and administer oxygen. In general, do not elevate the extremity. Note and record the distal pulses and skin condition. Perform and document a neurologic examination of the affected extremities.
