Now with the Dopplex Ability Automatic ABI system, Ankle Brachial Index has never been simpler or quicker. Its portability enables measurements to be made more efficiently in the primary care clinic or patient’s home. This can lead to more appropriate referrals into secondary care by identifying patients with Peripheral Arterial Disease. ABIs are calculated easily and accurately in 3 minutes without the need to rest the patient. Results are automatically calculated, interpreted and displayed with Pulse Volume waveforms on the LCD panel. The test results can be printed on either thermal paper or adhesive backed label paper via the integral printer.

The Dopplex Ability offers a cost-effective solution for the measurement of ABI while providing an immediate printout of results from the integral printer or optional DR4 software package.

Based on volume plethysmography technology, which is superior to other automatic systems using the oscillometric method, the ABIlity is able to detect low ankle pressures in as low as 55mmHg and ABIs as low as 0.29 (Lewis, 2014).

The Dopplex Ability also excels over other ABI automated systems as it measures the blood pressures in both arms, using the patented two chamber cuffs, before utilising the higher pressure to calculate the ABI. This complies with current guidelines for ABI measurement and calculation published by NICE, ESC, TASC2 and AHA while automated systems which measure the pressure in one arm only, may miss or incorrectly classify cases of PAD.

An average sized surgery could have up to 300 patients who are at risk to having PAD. Testing them with Dopplex ABIlity would have taken 25 hours in total vs 150 hours with the traditional method

Using a conventional doppler to measure ABI can be time consuming due to the difficulty in locating vessels and the need to maintain contact during inflation and deflation processes.

The Dopplex ABIlity deskills the ABI test and experienced users are able to obtain accurate measurements in as few as three minutes.

The Dopplex ABIlity features a built-in thermal printer and is supplied complete with batteries, printer paper and a set of standard cuffs.
