LegDisorders.org is the official website of the Biology of Leg Disorders™ (BOLD™) educational initiative. BOLD brings a first-of-its-kind educational paradigm to leg disorders, structuring programs across a spectrum of diseases. Classification that differentiates on the basis of pathophysiologic origin (ie, cardiovascular, neurologic, musculoskeletal) offers healthcare professionals comprehensive, cross-disciplinary education. Over the coming months, PCPs, geriatricians, OB/GYNs, nurse practitioners, and pharmacists will participate in programs in this format via live meetings, web and satellite conferences, and enduring materials that are both printed and web-based. As such, the leadership of BOLD draws from physician, nurse practitioner and pharmacy professions representing a cross section of medical specialties. BOLD is truly a multimedia campaign with unprecedented outreach to clinicians.
LegDisorders.org was developed with funding through an educational grant from AR Scientific, Inc.
