We consider the walk test on the treadmill (ET), and the postocclusive reactive hyperemia (HR). The determinations are limited to the peripheral pressures measured by the sphygmomanometric-Doppler technique. It is the method of choice for diagnostic purposes, but is necessary only for selected cases. For epidemiology, HR is interesting because it is simple to apply and the sensitivity and specificity to recognise moderate obstructions is good. The determination of the ankle pressure at rest is generally enough in the routine practice. It is reproducible and safe. ET may be applied in certain conditions taking into account some problems of interpretation due the complexity of the phenomenon.
我们考虑跑步机上的步行试验（ET）以及闭塞后反应性充血（HR）。这些测定仅限于通过血压计 - 多普勒技术测量的外周压力。它是诊断目的的首选方法，但仅适用于特定病例。对于流行病学而言，HR很有意义，因为它应用简单，识别中度阻塞的敏感性和特异性良好。在常规实践中，通常测定静息时的踝部压力就足够了。它具有可重复性且安全。考虑到该现象的复杂性所带来的一些解释问题，ET可能在某些条件下应用。
