CONCLUSION: Conventional doppler measurements give higher readings for systolic blood pressure but there is no significant difference when calculating ABPI. A normal digital ABPI excludes significant vascular disease and a low digital ABPI indicates disease. If no blood pressure is recordable a doppler...
In medicine, IQR can help to understand the range of normal blood pressure readings in a study group, discounting extreme values. In environmental studies, researchers might use IQR to assess the consistency of pollutant levels in various samples....
