ABI is a form of physiological measurement that provides valuable information about the functional status of peripheral arteries and predicts the risk of cardiovascular disease. It works by calculating ratio of systolic blood pressure of one of the arteries of ankle and that of brachial artery in the arm.

Brachial–ankle pulse wave velocity, cardio-ankle vascular index, and prognosis
Dai Ato Gakujutsu Shien Co., Ltd, Tokyo, Japan Background: Brachial–ankle pulse wave velocity (baPWV) and cardio-ankle vascular index (CAVI) are indices of arterial stiffness, and several studies have used these indices.

Introduction The ankle-brachial index (ABI) is an indicator of peripheral arterial damage and a low (ABI ≤ 1.0) or borderline (ABI = 1.00–1.09) value is associated with risk of cardiovascular disease events.

The Association Between Ankle-Brachial Index and Quality of Life in Chronic Hemodialysis Patients
Ankle-brachial index (ABI) is an important indicator of peripheral arterial disease (PAD) and PAD has a negative impact on quality of life (QOL). However, the correlation between ABI and QOL is unknown among chronic hemodialysis patients. Ankle-brachial

Falsely high ankle-brachial index predicts major amputation in critical limb ischemia
Falsely high ankle-brachial index (ABI) values are associated with an adverse clinical outcome in diabetes mellitus. The aim of the present study was to verify whether such an association also exists in patients with chronic critical limb ischemia (CLI ...

Background: Ankle Brachial Index (ABI) is a ratio of ankle and brachial systolic pressure that can be used to assess the severity of peripheral arterial occlusion, which is a general description of arterial blockage. If peripheral perfusion increases, it

MEASUREMENT OF THE ANKLE-BRACHIAL PRESSURE INDEX (ABPI)
Mjerenje gležanskog indeksa (ABPi), poznatog kao omjer indeksa potkoljenice i nadlaktice, je odnos krvnog tlaka potkoljenice i nadlaktice koji se jednostavno izvodi, a omogućuje daljnju dijagnozu određivanja ozbiljnosti periferne arterijske bolesti s ...
