Definitions
- the present invention relates to the identification and assessment of lower limb arterial disease based on an Ankle Brachial Pressure Index (ABPI) .
- ABPI Ankle Brachial Pressure Index
- ABPI is expressed as the ratio of the ankle blood pressure to the highest brachial (upper arm) blood pressure.
- systolic blood pressure values are measured to determine this index.
- blood pressure downstream of the occlusion in the direction of flow is lower than upstream of the occlusion so that an abnormal ankle and brachial blood pressure index is obtained and arterial disease can be diagnosed.
- a known technique to measure ABPI involves the patient being supine and having rested for 5 to 10 minutes. The systolic pressures are then measured sequentially in each of the four limbs by applying a cuff to the upper arms and at the ankles.
- a hand held Doppler probe is used to listen to the blood flow either in the brachial artery for blood pressure in the arms or in the dorsalis pedis and posterior tibial arteries for ankle blood pressures.
- the technique has difficulties in identifying the arteries in the foot using the Doppler probe as well as maintaining the blood vessel contact with Doppler probe during inflation and deflation of cuff.
- the blood pressure is continually changing and pressures measured at the beginning of the test may be disassociated with pressures taken at the end of the test.
- PPG arterial photo-plethysmography
- the present invention seeks to make improvements. Accordingly, the present invention provides an ABPI measuring device comprising a plurality of inflatable cuffs, at least one cuff to be wrapped around an upper limb and at least one cuff to be wrapped around a lower limb, each of the cuffs having a first and a second chamber, means to inflate the first chambers simultaneously to a pre-determined pressure, holding the first chambers at that pressure and inflating simultaneously the second chambers to a desired pressure, recording the pressure and deflating the first and second chambers .
- At least one cuff is wrapped around a finger and at least one cuff is wrapped around a toe, when it is not possible to wrap a cuff around the ankle, for example with a diabetic foot.
- the second chambers are inflated to a pressure greater than the desired pressure and then deflated slowly to the desired pressure.
- each first chamber is simultaneously inflated to a pressure until a signal related to the arterial flow in the limb is detected.
- each second chamber is simultaneously inflated to a desired pressure until the signal from each first chamber is no longer detected, each second chamber then inflated to a greater pressure than the desired pressure and finally deflated until the signal from each first chamber is detected again and this desired pressure in each second chamber recorded.
- the device comprises four cuffs, each cuff to be wrapped around each limb or toe or finger.
- a method of measuring the ABPI comprising the steps of applying inflatable cuffs to each upper arm or fingers and each ankle or toes of a patient, the cuffs connected to a fluid source and control, each cuff having a first chamber and a second chamber, inflating simultaneously each first chamber of each cuff to a first pressure until a signal relating to the arterial flow in the limb is detected, then simultaneously inflating each second chamber of each cuff to a pressure where the signal is no longer detected, and inflating further the second chambers to a higher pressure, deflating the second chambers slowly until the signal is again detected at the first chamber, the control recording the pressure value of the second chambers, and calculating an ABPI value based on the pressures recorded.
- the method of measuring the ABPI comprises applying inflatable cuffs to each upper arm or finger and obtaining pressure values, and repeating the method for each ankle or toe to obtain a pressure value for each ankle and then providing a display of the ABPI.
- the device has the advantage over the conventional methods of measuring ABPI in that it can make simultaneous measurements of systolic pressures from pairs of limbs, for example, arms or legs or fingers or toes or all four limbs or fingers or toes together. Inflation of pairs of limbs or fingers or toes may be necessary for some patients who are not comfortable with simultaneous inflation of all the limbs or fingers or toes. Inflation of all the limbs or fingers or toes simultaneously obviates the need for a resting period prior to the test.
- Figure 1 shows an embodiment of the ABPI measurement system according to the invention
- Figure 2a shows in schematic form the cuff for the arm of the ABPI measurement system according to the invention
- Figure 2b shows in schematic form the cuff for the ankle of the ABPI measurement system according to the invention
- Figure 2c shows in schematic form the cuff for the toe of the ABPI measurement system according to the invention
- FIG 3 shows an example of a graph that is displayed on a display device of the ABPI measurement system according to the invention.
- the ABPI measurement system 1 includes two ankle blood pressure measuring devices 10 for each left and right ankle (Figure 2b) and two arm blood pressure measuring devices 10 for each left and right arm ( Figure 2a) of a patient.
- Figure 2c it is also envisaged that instead of the two ankle blood pressure measuring devices 10 there could be two toe blood pressure measuring devices and instead of the two arm blood pressure measuring devices 10 there could be two finger blood pressure measuring devices.
- Each device 10 comprises a cuff having two chambers 11, 12 connected together in a manner so that either chamber does not interfere with the other chamber.
- the cuff 10 is adapted to be wrapped around the ankle and foot (Figure 2b) or upper arm and forearm ( Figure 2a) as appropriate.
- the chambers 11, 12 are connected by a flexible material 13 such that the action of one chamber does not interfere with the action of the other while maintaining a fixed distance between the chambers and allowing for simple and convenient application to the patient.
- the chambers 11, 12 are connected to a conventional fluid source for inflation and control 14 having pressure sensors to control the inflation.
- the fluid source and control are conventional and known to the person skilled in the art and will not be further described herein.
- the four blood pressure measuring devices 10 are wrapped around the respective right and left upper and lower limbs of a patient and each chamber 11 is inflated simultaneously to a pressure appropriate for the limb, for example, 60 mmHg for the ankles and arms, and less than 30 mmHg for the toes and fingers, until a Pneumo Arterial Plethysmography (PAPG) signal related to the arterial flow in the limb is detected at the chambers 11.
- PAPG Pneumo Arterial Plethysmography
- the chambers 12 are then deflated and the pressure at which the PAPG signal returns is noted for each limb and this value of the pressure is used to calculate the ABPIs according to the equation below, where the highest brachial pressure is the greater value of the left and right brachial pressures; .
- Toe pressure ri ⁇ ht " sl " Highest _ brachial _ pressure The system displays the measured systolic pressures and the calculated Left ABPI and Right ABPI. If toe blood pressures are measured then the Left TBPI and Right TBPI is displayed.
- the ABPI/TBPI value can also be printed as a waveform 15 or communicated to a remote site. The ABPI/TBPI value is interpreted to give an indication of the status of the arterial system of the patient. Typical results are as shown below: -
- Inflation of the chambers 12 to a pressure of 60mmHg, either before or after the test, allows the system to display the waveforms 15 related to the arterial flow in the limbs as shown in Figure 3.
- the waveforms from each chamber 12 can be used for further waveform analysis for the grading of arterial disease.
- the above describes a simultaneous four limb blood pressure measurement system.
