Sample Blurb for Electronic Newsletters

September is Peripheral Arterial Disease (P.A.D.) Awareness Month, a national observance to inform the public about the dangers of P.A.D. 

Approximately 9 million Americans suffer from peripheral arterial disease (P.A.D.), a debilitating condition associated with heart attack, stroke and death. Patients with P.A.D. have a diminished quality of life, functional disability, two- to six-fold increase in cardiovascular mortality, and a significantly increased risk of amputation. Yet, most Americans with P.A.D. are not aware of their diagnosis or the significance of P.A.D.

Stay in Circulation:  Take Steps to Learn about P.A.D. is a national campaign developed by the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute and the P.A.D. Coalition, an alliance of national organizations united to improve the health and health care of people with P.A.D.   Throughout September, national organizations and community groups will be working to reach individuals at risk for P.A.D. through the media and special activities.
