    Your video describing ABI was so helpful. I'm a RN studying for wound certification. I've had a difficult time understanding PAD and ABI's. Your video was so much more comprehensive than a text book. I had a "aha" moment. You have brought clarity to what seemed to be complicated. I will continue to watch your videos. Thanks.

    I've been in agony with my legs for quite a while ...but the difference between my blood pressure is by 110 .. on a home blood pressure monitor The ankle stated 265 And the arm was 155 I'm rather high .. I have no hair growth on my legs any more either and they're extremely pale.. they barely go pink again when I put my feet down I've recently been referred to a vascular surgeon but it's not until June of this year.. Thank you for this enlightenment .. The Doppler will obviously be able to tell much more information .

  • @nicholasroberts6954
    @nicholasroberts6954 Жыл бұрын

    Wonderful, thank you. At the moment in the UK, with the great NHS (!), patients in the affected groups would be extremely unlikely to get this test at the first point of contact with the Health Service (Usually the GP) and would have to wait until the condition got really bad before getting a referral to a specialist . . . Usually by that time they have been crippled or lost part of a leg. And all because the NHS is severely underfunded and because some medical practice, in part, so as to conform to the under-funding, is ante-deluvian, with the consequence that preventative healthcare is not made available so that it can offer its Quality of Life preserving effects and long-term increased health cost avoidance/minimisation. The neglect of this problem in the UK, with the way the demographics are going i.e. greater proportion of the population in the affected age groups, can only mean one thing. . . More widespread suffering. One wonders what the top health professionals and civil servants who head the NHS are doing. . . By now there should be a whole batch of tests that are routinely conducted on patients in the affected age groups, at least once a year or whenever they visit the GP (If they haven't visited in the last year) . . . But nothing heard so far, in fact the complete reverse. Now there's a routine job that could be done my a trained professional and technical person in the health in service and perhaps in place of the doctors Keep-up the good work spreading the word.

    Are there any mild symptoms associated with PAD? I am 40 and I recently started feeling numbness in my left big toe and sometimes a tingling sensation in my left leg when I sit down. I checked the blood pressure in my left arm and then the blood pressure in my left ankle. My systolic for the arm was 122 and the systolic for the ankle was 137. Any cause for concern here?

    The way he has it is correct. The upper boundary is 1.3 therefore anything greater than 1.3 is problematic. He didn’t position the sign in the typical place which must have confused you.

    I just did ABI test and the technician who was doing the test keep talking to me during the time he was taking my arm blood pressure so my arm number is while I was talking and my ankle numbers are without talking. The number came back normal but I am not sure if it is accurate since I was talking during arm blood pressure measurement. What do you think based on your experience regarding my ABI accuracy? The ABI is 1.19 and 1.25! And BTW, I have claudication symptoms during exercise and after. My cardiologist is not good and he tries to convince there is nothing wrong with me and I already have an autoimmune disease and hyporeflexia and will do EMG and NCV test to check nerve damage.

    I can only speak for German as an example: We use a coma as the decimal separater and we also call it a coma when we speak. So e.g. "null Komma neun" for 0,9. But if I would do my presentation in english I would say it the anglo-american way: "zero point nine". (I would also try to remember to write it that way ;-)

    Dr. should have specified where the pain was. The patient could have been having a headache and thus experiencing pain. He should have asked if the patient were having foot or leg pain. Picky I know, but it was confusing initially and I'm still not sure where the pain was that he was referring to. Otherwise, he did provide important information.

    the most important question is what you can do for a person when his diagnosis indicates a disease, nothing! all the medicine you can give them will have side effects and no fix. the most you can tell them is watch your diet. so, just lets ask everyone to watch their diet and no need for these tests.
