What does ABI diagnosis?

The ankle-brachial index test is a quick, simple way to check for peripheral artery disease (PAD). The disease occurs when narrowed arteries reduce the blood flow to the arms and legs. PAD can cause leg pain when walking.

How do I get a ABI?

The ABI is performed by measuring the systolic blood pressure from both brachial arteries and from both the dorsalis pedis and posterior tibial arteries after the patient has been at rest in the supine position for 10 minutes. The systolic pressures are recorded with a handheld 5- or 10-mHz Doppler instrument.

What does an ABI of 0.8 mean?

If the ABI is less than 0.8, sustained, high compression (i.e., 30\u201340 mmHg at the ankle) is not recommended. 2. In mixed venous/arterial disease (i.e., ABI is > 0.5 to < 0.8), reduced compression levels (i.e., 23\u201330 mmHg) are advised.

How do you calculate ABI?

Health care providers calculate ABI by dividing the blood pressure in an artery of the ankle by the blood pressure in an artery of the arm. The result is the ABI. If this ratio is less than 0.9, it may mean that a person has peripheral artery disease (PAD) in the blood vessels in his or her legs.

What is a normal brachial index?

Normal cut-off values for ABI, adopted by most studies and by the accepted guidelines of cardiology societies are between 0.9 (0.85) and 1.4 (2). An abnormal ankle-brachial index below 0.9 is a powerful independent marker of cardiovascular risk.
