Implication

May support standardized peripheral flow assessments in research; leaves open translation to clinical practice.

Structured PICO

Population

8 subjects

Intervention

Venous occlusion plethysmography (50 mmHg) and arterial occlusion (220 mmHg for 13 min) to assess blood flow and vascular resistance at baseline and during post-occlusive reactive hyperaemia

Outcome

Short- (hours) and medium (week)-term reproducibility of forearm, calf and thigh blood flow and vascular resistance, assessed by coefficient of variation (CV)surrogate

Venous occlusion plethysmography is a reproducible, low-cost tool for assessing baseline blood flow and post-occlusive reactive hyperaemia in the forearm, calf, and thigh.
