Pulse volume recorder (PVR) measurements are similar to arterial pressure contour tracings and have proved valuable in determining the degree of arterial obstruction in the lower extremity. However, with the standard PVR tracing with thigh, calf, and ankle cuffs, differentiation between high superficial femoral or common femoral artery lesions and combined iliac and superficial femoral artery lesions is extremely difficult. Because the operative approach will vary, depending on whether the disease is primarily in the iliac arteries (and thus intra-abdominal) or in the femoral arteries (and thus extra-abdominal), we have devised a noninvasive method for measuring pressure and flow in the femoral artery with a special cuff. With the addition of the measurement obtained by this method of the standard PVR tracing, the noninvasive differentiation between iliac and high superficial femoral lesions has proved possible.
脉搏容积记录器（PVR）测量类似于动脉压力轮廓描记，已被证明在确定下肢动脉阻塞程度方面很有价值。然而，使用带有大腿、小腿和脚踝袖带的标准PVR描记时，区分高位股浅动脉或股总动脉病变与髂动脉和股浅动脉联合病变极其困难。由于手术方法会因疾病主要位于髂动脉（因此在腹腔内）还是股动脉（因此在腹腔外）而有所不同，我们设计了一种使用特殊袖带测量股动脉压力和血流的非侵入性方法。通过将这种方法获得的测量结果添加到标准PVR描记中，已证明可以对髂动脉和高位股浅动脉病变进行非侵入性区分。
