Automatic Ankle Brachial Index System

efficiently in the primary care clinic, hospital or patient''s home in just 3 minutes.

*95% ACCURACY

- when compared to Ultrasound Duplex Imaging (Lewis et al, 2014)

REDUCED LABOUR TIME BY UP TO 85%

- when compared with Doppler ABI measurements. Resting time is eliminated

VOLUME PLETHYSMOGRAPHY TECHNOLOGY

- superior to other automatic systems especially in detecting low ankle pressures

and ABIs. (ABI range: 0.29-1.57; Lewis et al, 2014)

IMPROVED DIAGNOSIS

- using Pulse Volume waveforms to detect underlying arterial disease when

calcification is present (Davies et al, 2014)

PROVEN RELIABILITY

- when compared to conventional methods in almost all patient groups, providing

clear results with waveforms (Lewis, 2010)

REDUCED INAPPROPRIATE REFERRALS

- The introduction of Ability into a new clinical pathway can reduce inappropriate

referrals and lead to the prioritisation of clinical services (Tadej, 2013)

MEASUREMENTS COMPLY WITH GUIDELINES

- Ability measurements comply with International Guidelines which specify that all

four limb pressures must be used to calculate the ABI
