Methods: This research is a retrospective descriptive study through electronic medical records. Samples are all patients that had been treated at Vajira Hospital during the COVID-19 outbreak in Thailand between January 2020 to December 2022. Results: Results shown that out of 180 patients with chronic limb threatening ischemia, 106 are male (58.9%) while 74 are females (41.1%). The average age of the patients is 77.01 years old. Sixty-seven patients (37.2%) have history of smoking. Seventy-four patients (41.1%) were found with Wifi Classification state. One hundred and seventy-five patients (97.2%) have comorbidity including Hypertension 24.5%, Diabetes mellitus 23.1%, Dyslipidemia 19.2%. 38.7% of the patients receive Dual Antiplatelet 38.7%. It is found that low Serum Albumin (3.26 g/dL) and Wifi Classification are having significant correlation with occurrences of complications after surgeries (p KW - CLTI KW - covid KW - outcomes KW - albumin CR - 1.
