   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 suggests blocked arteries due to peripheral artery dise

3. Peripheral artery disease - Wikipedia

   [5] [19] PAD is typically diagnosed by finding an ankle-brachial index (ABI) less than 0.90, which is the systolic blood pressure at the ankle divided by the systolic blood pressure of the arm. [9] Duplex ultrasonography and angiography may also be used. [8]

4. Peripheral vascular examination - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peripheral_vascular...

   Ankle-brachial pressure index (ABPI) assesses peripheral vascular disease. It may however be unreliable in patients with calcified arteries in the calf (often diabetic patients) or those with extensive oedema, in which case toe pressure or Toe-brachial pressure index (TBPI) should be measured to aid in the diagnosis.

5. Cardiovascular examination - Wikipedia

   The ankle-brachial pressure index compares the systolic blood pressure of the ankle to the systolic blood pressure of the arm. A ratio that is outside of the range of 1-1.3 may indicate a disease of the vessels, such as peripheral arterial disease (the ankle-brachial index would be low). [1]

9. Compression stockings - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compression_stockings

   A patient's ankle brachial pressure index (ABPI) must be >1.0 per leg to wear compression stockings, otherwise the stockings may obstruct the patient's arterial flow. The ABPI indicates how unobstructed a patient's leg and arm arteries are.
