Aortoiliac angio and lower extremity runoff study?

I absolutely cannot find education on this procedure for the patient. My hospital will do it but apparently not educate the patient about it. And if we can't understand it, how are we going to translate it to Spanish? Anyone have suggestions other than beating my cabeza against the wall? Thanks!
I think you could use educational material for coronary angiography because the procedure itself is similar as far as prep and recovery.Check out FamilyDoctor.org for teaching material for PAD and claudication. They have a Spanish version as well. It is sponsored by the American Academy of Family Physicians.I like the Mayo Clinic site for education, but I don't see that they have a Spanish version available.

This is just more specific way of describing a peripheral angiogram, same as a cardiac cath except on vessels other than coronaries. A runoff study is another way of saying diagnostic angiogram (as opposed to angioplasty). If you use Krames, they have a general angiogram pamphlet in spanish and I think they have a peripheral angiogram one as well.
