In Part I, you learned that John may be at risk for peripheral vascular disease (PVD), specifically peripheral artery disease (PAD). One simple test for diagnosing PAD is called the ankle brachial index (ABI). Before you look at the test, review the physiology of blood pressure.

One simple test for diagnosing PAD is called the ankle brachial index (ABI). Record all answers in your laboratory journal. Before you look at the test, review the physiology of blood pressure. Use reference textbooks or the Internet to help you answer the following:

An Ankle/Brachial Index (ABI) must be performed. Bilateral brachial artery systolic pressures must be obtained from both arms and the higher of the two pressures used to calculate the ABI. Ankle systolic pressures must be obtained bilaterally from the distal PTA and ATA/DPA and the higher of the two pressures on each side used to calculate the ABI.

NOTE: An ankle/brachial index is required for peripheral vascular disease or aneurysm of any large artery (other than aorta), arteriosclerosis obliterans or thrombo-angiitis obliterans (Buerger’s disease) if not of record, or if there has been an intervening change in the Veteran’s peripheral
Ankle-Brachial Index (ABI) Test: Procedure, Risk Factors, and Results
Ankle Brachial Pressure Index Information . The arterial vascular status of the legs of all patients with lower limb lymphoedema and vascular conditions should be assessed. The presence of peripheral arterial occlusive disease may contraindicate compression therapy or necessitate a reduction in the level of compression used.

Ankle brachial index is calculated using the highest systolic ankle pressure on each side (dorsalis pedis or posterior tibial) divided by the higher of the two brachial pressures. If any of the pressures are incompressible (and the cuffs are correctly placed) them medial calcification should be suspected which would render the pressures invalid.

The ankle-brachial pressure index (ABPI) or ankle-brachial index (ABI) is the ratio of the blood pressure at the ankle to the blood pressure in the upper arm (brachium). Compared to the arm, lower blood pressure in the leg is an indication of blocked arteries due to peripheral artery disease (PAD).

A SAP/PVR and ABI test is conducted to evaluate the blood flow in the arteries of your legs. Why is a SAP/PVR/ABI test . performed? To evaluate for possible decreased blood flow to your legs and feet. To monitor the progression of vascular disease. To assess medical and surgical therapy. Can I eat or drink on the day of the test? Yes.
