  2. Ankle–brachial pressure index - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ankle–brachial_pressure...

    Skilled operators are required for consistent, accurate results. [12] When performed in an accredited diagnostic laboratory, the ABI is a fast, accurate, and painless exam, however these issues have rendered ABI unpopular in primary care offices and symptomatic patients are often referred to specialty clinics [13] due to the perceived ...

  3. Acquired brain injury - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acquired_brain_injury

    Acquired brain injury (ABI) is brain damage caused by events after birth, rather than as part of a genetic or congenital disorder such as fetal alcohol syndrome, perinatal illness or perinatal hypoxia. [1] ABI can result in cognitive, physical, emotional, or behavioural impairments that lead to permanent or temporary changes in functioning. [1]

  4. Childhood acquired brain injury - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Childhood_acquired_brain...

    Childhood (or paediatric) acquired brain injury (ABI) is the term given to any injury to the brain that occurs during childhood but after birth and the immediate neonatal period. It excludes injuries sustained as a result of genetic or congenital disorder.

  6. Reference ranges for blood tests - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reference_ranges_for_blood...

    Reference ranges (reference intervals) for blood tests are sets of values used by a health professional to interpret a set of medical test results from blood samples. Reference ranges for blood tests are studied within the field of clinical chemistry (also known as "clinical biochemistry", "chemical pathology" or "pure blood chemistry"), the ...

  7. Auditory brainstem implant - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Auditory_brainstem_implant

    An auditory brainstem implant (ABI) is a surgically implanted electronic device that provides a sense of sound to a person who is profoundly deaf, due to retrocochlear hearing impairment (due to illness or injury damaging the cochlea or auditory nerve, and so precluding the use of a cochlear implant).

  8. Davenport diagram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Davenport_diagram

    Recall that the relationship represented in a Davenport diagram is a relationship between three variables: P CO 2, bicarbonate concentration and pH.Thus, Fig. 7 can be thought of as a topographical map—that is, a two-dimensional representation of a three-dimensional surface—where each isopleth indicates a different partial pressure or “altitude.”

  9. Application binary interface - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Application_binary_interface

    An ABI defines how data structures or computational routines are accessed in machine code, which is a low-level, hardware-dependent format. In contrast, an application programming interface (API) defines this access in source code , which is a relatively high-level, hardware-independent, often human-readable format.
