5.3.1
The MESI automated wireless ABI system includes 4 cus for
arms/legs. The ABI measurement can be made using with 4 or 3
cus. When using 4 cus the MESI mTABLET ABI system uses the
SmartArm™ algorithm to identify the arm with the higher systolic
blood pressure, which will be used in the calculation of ABI.
When using only 3 cus the user needs to identify the arm with
the higher systolic blood pressure manually or perform the ABI
measurement with both arms to obtain an accurate result.
NOTE
Measurement of the Ankle-Brachial Pressure Index can be aected by the
placement of the cus, the position of the patient and their physical condition.
The functioning of the device can also be aected by high temperature,
humidity and altitudes.
