What Is Smart ABI?
The Smart ABI (Ankle Brachial Index) test helps our podiatrists compare the blood pressure in the ankle with the blood pressure in the arm. A low ABI can detect a blockage or narrowing of the arteries in the legs, which may indicate peripheral arterial disease (PAD). The Smart ABI test is non-invasive, painless, and fast. It provides an easy-to-read, color-coded report that indicates whether the patient has a normal, borderline, or severe risk factor for PAD. This advanced test saves patient data, which helps our podiatrists track patient progress throughout treatment.
