Value of Cuff Occlusion Pressures in Assessment of Peripheral Vascular Disease

Abstract

Cuff occlusion pressures using the ultrasonic Doppler machine were recorded in 30 normal legs and in 90 legs with peripheral vascular disease. With this technique it was possible to show obstructions to the circulation above and below the inguinal ligament. © 1973, British Medical Journal Publishing Group. All rights reserved.
