Interpretation Action Nature of ulcers, if present 1.3 and above: Abnormal Vessel hardening from PVD: Refer or measure Toe pressure: Venous ulcer use full compression bandaging: 1.0 - 1.2: Normal range: None 0.90 - 0.99: Acceptable 0.80 - 0.89: Some arterial disease: Manage risk factors 0.50 - 0.79: Moderate arterial disease: Routine specialist ...
Absence of the portal system in a first trimester case associated with hygroma and aorto-umbilical fistula. (A): Transverse plane of the upper abdomen with color Doppler applied, showing umbilical cord insertion, stomach, the prominent hepatic artery and no afferent liver venous perfusion; (B): midsagittal plane reconstructed from a three-dimensional volume acquisition were the crown-rump ...
A minimum systolic value can be roughly estimated by palpation, most often used in emergency situations, but should be used with caution. [10] It has been estimated that, using 50% percentiles, carotid, femoral and radial pulses are present in patients with a systolic blood pressure > 70 mmHg, carotid and femoral pulses alone in patients with systolic blood pressure of > 50 mmHg, and only a ...
C a = the oxygen concentration of arterial blood (oxygenated blood) C v = the oxygen concentration of venous blood (deoxygenated blood) The usual unit for a-vO 2 diff is millilitres of oxygen per 100 millilitres of blood (mL/100 mL), [1] however, particularly in medical uses, other units may be used, such as micro moles per millilitre (μmol/mL ...
The arterial resistivity index (also called as Resistance index, abbreviated as RI), developed by Léandre Pourcelot , is a measure of pulsatile blood flow that reflects the resistance to blood flow caused by microvascular bed distal to the site of measurement. It is primarily used in ultrasound imaging to evaluate arteries and solid organ damage.
Wave intensity analysis [1] provides a method to calculate the properties of arterial waves that give rise to arterial blood pressure, based on measurements of pressure, P, and velocity, U, waveforms (Figure 1). Wave intensity analysis is applicable to the evaluation of circulatory physiology and quantifying the pathophysiology of disorders ...

From these, it is easy to calculate the area (in cm 2) of the aortic valve by simply dividing the LV stroke volume (in cm 3) by the AV VTI (in cm) measured on the spectral Doppler display using continuous-wave Doppler. [citation needed] Stroke volume = 0.785(π/4) x Diameter 2 x VTI of LVOT Cross sectional area of LVOT = 0.785(π/4) x LVOT ...
