PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
The MESI ABPI MD is an automated Ankle-Brachial Index (ABI)
measuring device for screening patients for Peripheral Arterial
Disease/Lower Extremity Arterial Disease (PAD/LEAD). The de-
vice is intended to perform, view and store ABI measurements of
adult patients in the PAD risk group.
The MESI ABPI MD is intended to be used solely in the profes-
sional clinical environment by trained healthcare personnel who
can correctly place blood pressure cus on the patient’s body,
verify that these cus are inflating or deflating normally, and start
the measurement process.
The MESI ABPI MD is intended to measure ABI by using a type
of plethysmography – the oscillometric method. The ABI result
(along with used blood pressure values used in calculating the
ABI), the pulse wave and the oscillation graph are captured and
displayed as numerical and graphical representations on the
device.
