Can Ankle Brachial Index test be performed at home?

I am a 38 year old female. I'm concerned about peripheral artery disease. My left foot turns blue off and on. I was wondering if I can do an ankle brachial index test at home with a blood pressure cuff.

What would one hear if a stethoscope was placed on the brachial artery without a pressure cuff?

Would there be a sound I presume there wouldn’t be as there is no occlusion of blood flow and the systolic and diastolic pressure sounds are not heard. But I’m still not 100% sure if there would be a sound without a cuff?

Hope that makes sense

La Sportiva G5 Evo ankle pressure

These boots fit my foot better than any other I have tried on. But there’s a pressure from the Boa laces/Velcro strap where the front of the ankle bends when walking flat or up an incline.

For those who have experience with this boot (or with the G2 SM, about which I have read reports of similar experiences), is this something that breaks in, or can be dealt with by adjusting the Boa/strap appropriately? Or is it an indication that the boot doesn’t fit as well as I’d like it to?

Many thanks for any input.

I’m stuck. I’ve had an ankle pressure pain. I got medium thems and Carlos Bernal size 9. The bernals are 2 years old I was told to get them. I did. Toes feel crushed when wearing them. I thought maybe the pain was coming from the thems. Bought new liner and there’s too much room. Ankle pain is gone.

Tony Deppen: "if it weren’t for bad luck, I wouldn’t have any. I wont be at PWG tonight. Fucked up ankle the last few days, and I currently cant put much pressure on it. And if I cant put 150% into my matches then I don’t want to water myself down. Hopefully Lee Moriarty and I meet soon." twitter.com/Tony_Deppen/s…

Does Logan have peripheral artery disease rather than “heat exhaustion”? At the end of 3x04 his left leg is propped up on the plane with what appears to be a compression bandage on his foot and an ankle blood pressure cuff.
