A progressive increase in the incidence of peripheral arterial occlusive disease is being observed in today's steadily aging population. In recent years, a number of simple noninvasive vascular techniques have become available for the diagnosis of peripheral arterial occlusive disease. These techniques provide the physician with physiologic information about the patient's peripheral circulation which permits discrimination between complaints compatible with the aging process and those indicative of an underlying disease state. This article reviews the noninvasive vascular diagnostic techniques that the authors found useful in evaluating the geriatric patient. These include oculoplethysmography. Doppler ultrasound, photoplethysmography, arterial impedance plethysmography, and electromagnetic flowmetry.
在当今人口不断老龄化的情况下，外周动脉闭塞性疾病的发病率正在逐步上升。近年来，出现了许多简单的非侵入性血管技术用于诊断外周动脉闭塞性疾病。这些技术为医生提供有关患者外周循环的生理信息，从而能够区分与衰老过程相符的症状和那些表明存在潜在疾病状态的症状。本文回顾了作者认为在评估老年患者时有用的非侵入性血管诊断技术。这些技术包括眼体积描记法、多普勒超声、光电容积描记法、动脉阻抗容积描记法和电磁血流测量法。
