Crynodeb

This post will be based at the Manchester Vascular Centre, Manchester Royal Infirmary and is suitable for either vascular surgery trainees at Specialty Trainee level or equivalent seeking 'out of programme experience' in full-time research for award of Doctor of Philosophy – 3-year full time.



The successful applicant will lead a programme of research focused on frailty-informed care models for patients with chronic limb-threatening ischaemia (CLTI), with emphasis on anticipatory and palliative care pathways, quality of life assessment, and outcomes in this high-risk group. This will combine prospective cohort work, qualitative interviews, and retrospective data linkage to national vascular registries.

The project comprises:

· Workstream 1: Prospective cohort study of CLTI patients assessing quality of life, hospitalisation, palliative care input, and survival.

· Workstream 2: Qualitative interviews with patients, carers, and clinicians to explore experiences of anticipatory and end-of-life care, identifying barriers and facilitators to improved pathways.

· Workstream 3: Retrospective analysis of linked registry and hospital datasets to investigate survival, cause of death, and health resource utilisation in CLTI.

These workstreams are achievable within a 3-year tenure, with Manchester Vascular Centre providing a large and diverse patient population. Alongside on-call commitments (1:15 middle grade rota), time and resources will be ring-fenced for research delivery.
