Ankle blood pressure readings were divided by: (i) average of the left and right brachial reading (AVERAGE); (ii) highest of left and right brachial reading (HIGHEST); (iii) higher brachial pressure was used unless the brachial pressures differed by less than 15 mmHg between the right and ...
The ABI is calculated by dividing the highest ankle blood pressure reading by the highest arm reading. The resultant data can be used to determine the degree of PAD present. For instance, a drop in the ABI reading after exercise indicates a significant level of PAD. ...
To use the device, your doctor will first put a dab of gel on your arm just below the blood pressure cuff. Then, they’ll put the ultrasound device on the gel. This helps them know when to take your blood pressure reading. They’ll do the same steps on your other arm and then on...
Additionally, blood pressure readings should be obtained from both arms, and the higher of the two values—not the average of the two—should be used in the ABI calculation. This is to avoid using an arm pressure that is falsely low as a consequence of upper-extremity peripheral arterial dis...

A DINAMAP™ 1846 SX automated oscillometric device (Critikon, Tampa, FL) was used to measure blood pressures in both the ankle and the arm. The reliability and reproducibility of the DINAMAP™ device in measuring ankle blood pressure have been demonstrated to be similar to that of the ...
