Combination of low ankle-brachial index and high ankle-brachial index difference for mortality prediction

Hypertension Research, 2021
Low ankle-brachial index (ABI) and high ABI difference (ABID) are each associated with poor prognosis. No study has assessed the ability of the combination of low ABI and high ABID to predict survival. We created an ABI score by assigning 1 point for ABI

The Ankle Brachial Index

2010
The ankle brachial index (ABI) is defined as the ratio of systolic blood pressures in the ankles to that in the arms. The arteries typically interrogated for calculating the ABI include the brachial arteries in the arms and the posterior tibial and/or dorsalis pedis arteries in the legs.
