FAQ
What is perfusion pressure and mean blood pressure?
BlueDop Medical’s waveform to blood pressure technology looks at mean blood pressure in the limb. We know that a mean pressure of less than 40mm Hg correlates with poor wound healing. By providing mean blood pressure or perfusion pressure, BlueDop displays actionable information that the healthcare provider can use when determining a treatment plan for their most challenging diabetic and renal failure patients.
What is different about how BlueDop calculates ABIm?
BlueDop Medical’s proprietary algorithm calculates the ABIm using the mean blood pressure (systolic BP + diastolic BP) rather than traditional systolic BP. This means the hydrostatic pressure does not influence the ABIm measurement. This technology eliminates the need for resting 15 minutes before measurement or taking measurements in the supine position.
