Abstract EN
Ankle brachial index test is used as a guide in maxillofacial surgery to detect any abnormalities associated with circulation in the lower extremities.
This index is about 1 or 1.1 in normal conditions, if it is decreased or increased this mean that there are some abnormalities in haemodynamic such as peripheral arterial diseases.
A study carried out in Al-Hilla surgical hospital including 20 patients for estimation of ankle-brachial index(volunteers) to show their fitness for free flap surgery.
The results were normal in 13 patients, most of them in young adult groups.
