Ankle-brachial index in coronary artery disease
Dear Editor, We have read the article ‘‘Ankle-brachial index as a predictor of coronary disease events in elderly patients submitted to coronary angiography’’ by Eduardo D. E. Papa et al. (1). These authors aimed to evaluate the value of the ankle-brachial index (ABI) as a marker of cardiovascular events in elderly patients and to evaluate the relationship between the ABI and the extent of coro...

We would like to thank Balta and colleagues for their consideration of our article and the editorial board for providing an opportunity to clarify some issues. Ankle–brachial index (ABI) measurement may be influenced by age, body weight, race and anatomic variations of the lower limb arteries (1). After the measurement has been completed, the pulse locations of the lower limbs are found by palp...
متن کاملCorrelation between peripheral arterial disease and coronary artery disease using ankle brachial index-a study in Indian population.
OBJECTIVE To study the prevalence of peripheral arterial disease (PAD) of the lower limbs in a high-risk population and its correlation with coronary artery disease (CAD), using the ankle brachial index (ABI). METHODS The present study was conducted in randomly selected indoor patients >45 years of age with one or more risk factors for PAD admitted in the cardiology and medicine wards in a te...
متن کاملRelation between the ankle-brachial index and the complexity of coronary artery disease in older patients
BACKGROUND In the elderly, the ankle-brachial index (ABI) has greater than 90% sensitivity and specificity for peripheral artery disease identification. A well-known relation exists between peripheral artery disease and the number of diseased coronary vessels. Yet, other anatomical characteristics have important impacts on the type of treatment and prognosis. PURPOSE To determine the relation...
