Cuff Free Lower Limb Screening - ABIm
No more calf cuffs. Better accuracy.
Once you take the arm blood pressure using a conventional cuff, you will be able to acquire lower limb reading using BlueDop's "pressure from flow" algorithm.
Cuff-free readings differ from conventional ABI readings because they are the ratio between mean ankle and arm blood pressure. Its maximum value is 1.0. Values between 1.0 and 0.8 are consistent with PAD free limbs. Between 0.79 and 0.50 is consistent with claudication. Values between 0.49 and 0.0 are consistent with Critical Limb Ischaemia (CLI).
BlueDop gives you perfusion pressure.
Perfusion pressure in the foot has been correlated with the likelihood of wound healing. Pressure greater than 60mm Hg is associated with high degrees of healing, while pressures of less than 40mm Hg are not compatible with wound healing, and pressures of less than 30mm Hg are associated with spontaneous wound development.
