Q2:NAME THE instrument /what this examiner measures?
Answer:hand-held Doppler /ankle brachial index.
Use a hand-held Doppler and a
sphygmomanometer • Hold the probe over the posterior tibial artery • Inflate a BP cuff round the ankle • Note the pressure when Doppler signal disappears. This is the systolic pressure in that artery as it passes under the cuff Repeat holding the probe over dorsalis pedis, and then the perforating peroneal . • Measure the brachial BP in both arms, holding the Doppler probe over the brachial artery at the elbow of the radial artery at the wrist. Normal findings The ratio of the highest pedal artery pressure to the highest brachial artery pressure is the ABPI. In health, the ABPI is >1.0 when the patient is supine. The popliteal artery is always hard to feel – if you feel it easily, consider an aneurysm.
