Ankle/Brachial Index Testing

Description

What is Ankle/Brachial Index (ABI) Testing?

An Ankle/Brachial Index (ABI) test is a non-invasive diagnostic tool used to check for peripheral artery disease (PAD), a condition where the blood vessels in the legs are narrowed or blocked. This test compares the blood pressure in your ankles to the blood pressure in your arms to evaluate circulation and detect any potential blockage in the arteries of your legs.

Why Choose ABI Testing?

• Early Detection of PAD: Identifies signs of peripheral artery disease, which is a key risk factor for heart attack and stroke.
• Non-Invasive: A quick and painless procedure that requires no incisions or needles.
• Accurate Results: Provides reliable information about your arterial health and blood flow, which helps in the prevention of more serious cardiovascular conditions.

Who Should Get ABI Testing?

ABI testing is recommended for individuals who:

• Experience leg pain, cramping, or numbness, particularly during physical activity.
• Are at risk for peripheral artery disease, such as smokers, diabetics, or those with high blood pressure.
• Have a family history of cardiovascular disease or diabetes.
• Are over the age of 50 or have a history of heart disease or stroke.

What Does ABI Testing Detect?

• Peripheral Artery Disease (PAD): Identifies blockages or narrowing in the arteries of the legs.
• Circulatory Issues: Assesses overall blood flow and circulation efficiency in the extremities.
• Cardiovascular Risk: ABI results can indicate your risk for more severe heart-related conditions, including heart attack and stroke.

What’s Included in the Test?

• Blood Pressure Measurement: Blood pressure cuffs are placed on your ankles and arms, and the measurements are compared.
• Painless Procedure: The test is non-invasive, taking about 15-20 minutes to complete.
• Detailed Report: A comprehensive report is provided, analyzing your results and potential vascular health issues.
