ABI (Ankle Brachial Index)

The systolic blood pressure values of a person's arm
and leg need to be measured In order to determine
ABI (Ankle Brachial Index).
The ankle-brachial index (ABI) is then calculated
using the quotient of the systolic pressure from the
leg measurement and the systolic pressure from the
arm measurement.
ABI
INDEX
A low ankle-brachial index (ABI) is indicative of
systemic vascular disease, and should place a patient
in the high-risk category.
