To assess the accuracy of ankle brachial pressure index (ABPI) assessed by photoplethysmography (PPG) compared with continuous wave Doppler (CW-Doppler).
Ankle brachial pressure index was measured in a standard manner using both PPG and Doppler probes. For PPG-ABPI, a PPG probe was placed on the index finger and great toe, and a microcomputer determined the ABPI. These values were compared with the ABPI measured manually using an 8-MHz Doppler probe. Correlation and agreement between PPG and Doppler ABPI were assessed by Lin's correlation coefficient and Bland-Altman plots.
In all, 133 claudicants were assessed. There was a strong correlation between the 2 ABPI methods (beta = .79 and 95% limits of agreement of -0.23 to 0.24).
Measuring ABPI automatically using the PPG technique is an effective alternative for Doppler ABPI. PPG-ABPI is completely objective, fast, and accurate.
评估通过光电容积脉搏波描记法(PPG)评估的踝臂指数(ABPI)与连续波多普勒(CW - 多普勒)相比的准确性。
使用PPG探头和多普勒探头以标准方式测量踝臂指数。对于PPG - ABPI,将PPG探头置于食指和大脚趾上,由微型计算机确定ABPI。将这些值与使用8兆赫多普勒探头手动测量的ABPI进行比较。通过林氏相关系数和布兰德 - 奥特曼图评估PPG和多普勒ABPI之间的相关性和一致性。
总共评估了133名跛行患者。两种ABPI测量方法之间存在强相关性(β = 0.79,一致性界限为 - 0.23至0.24)。
使用PPG技术自动测量ABPI是多普勒ABPI的有效替代方法。PPG - ABPI完全客观、快速且准确。
