Reports
Below you will find a printable report for lower extremity arterial evaluation. The tests that can be done with the DD-PAD include:
-
Single Level Exams – Single level exams for diagnosing obstruction. Performed using Doppler.
-
ABI (Ankle Brachial Index) – with dual ankle Doppler pressures. This is the fundamental PAD exam.
Doppler
The DD-PAD includes a Doppler that utilizes Newman Medical’s sensitive, interchangeable probes. The Doppler has the sensitivity and audio response to allow you to hear the blood flow sounds quickly and clearly.
Our unique magnetic probe holder won’t crack or break and gently cradles the probe when not being used. The open design avoids gathering dirt, gel and germs.
The speaker is a powerful high fidelity speaker that has an extraordinarily smooth and rich response over the whole range of Doppler sounds.
Vascular sensors
The DD-PAD comes with a standard 8 MHz vascular probe to provide the sensitivity and reliability you need. Our 5 and 8 MHz vascular probes have a smooth contour design that is comfortable to hold, comfortable for the patient, and easy to clean.
- 8 MHz probes are especially sensitive for vessels near the surface like the radial, posterior tibial, and dorsalis pedis arteries.
- 5 MHz probes provide excellent deep penetration for deeper arteries like the femoral, popliteal and brachial, and for deep veins
- The DD-PAD comes with an 8 MHz probe; a 5 MHz is optional.
Cuffs
The DD-PAD system comes with a limited set of specialized vascular cuffs. They are a non-porous soft material over a non-latex bladder. The cuffs are long enough to completely encircle the limb. The set includes:
