Peripheral Artery Disease (PAD) is a serious condition that can lead to severe complications, including limb loss, if not diagnosed early. Traditional tools like the Ankle-Brachial Index (ABI) have limitations, particularly in patients with diabetes or other conditions affecting blood vessels. A new publication published in the Journal of Vascular Surgery, shared by Dr. Patrick Kelly highlights the need for more accurate tools in assessing PAD. The use of BlueDop has shown: -           90% sensitivity and 96% specificity in detecting PAD across all patients. -           In diabetic patients, BVE reached an impressive 95.4% accuracy, far outperforming ABI’s 68.3%. Having a tool that provides reliable, real-time assessments is critical for early intervention and reducing complications.

We are pleased to share an article on "The value of accessible vascular assessment tools in diabetic foot disease: An audit of a tertiary level hospital" that was published in the Medical Independent. Authored by Astrid Codemo, this article explores the clinical impact of the BlueDop device in improving vascular assessments for patients with diabetic foot disease. Click here to read in full: https://lnkd.in/giGDqmFj The audit highlights the potential of accessible technologies like BlueDop to transform vascular health. Key findings include: - The BlueDop device, developed in 2010, enables a cuff-free measurement of the Ankle-Brachial Pressure Index (ABPI) by assessing arterial blood flow in the posterior tibial or dorsalis pedis artery. - In an audit of 23 diabetic patients with active foot ulceration, BlueDop assessments reduced waiting times to just 11 working days, compared with over 10 weeks for traditional vascular laboratory assessments. - The device demonstrated its ability to provide reliable readings even in cases of non-compressible vessels, addressing a key limitation of traditional ABPI methods. With its accessibility and efficiency, BlueDop is particularly suited to community healthcare settings, helping to bridge gaps in care and improve access to timely assessments. The findings underscore the importance of innovative diagnostic tools in reducing delays and improving outcomes for patients with diabetic foot disease. BlueDop is proud to play a part in setting new standards for vascular health. We would like to thank Astrid for her rigorous work in showcasing the clinical potential of the BlueDop device and for furthering the conversation around improving vascular care. Astrid’s efforts align with our mission to make vascular diagnostics more accessible, accurate, and patient-centred. At BlueDop, we remain committed to advancing vascular diagnostics, empowering healthcare providers, and improving patient outcomes worldwide.

In 2024, Wounds UK released a new Best Practice Statement (BPS) to provide clear, evidence-based guidance for clinicians on assessing Ankle Brachial Pressure Index (ABPI) in patients with leg ulcers. This important document builds on the 2023 NICE diagnostic guidance regarding automated ABPI measurement devices. Developed by an expert working group chaired by Jacqui Fletcher OBE, and involving specialists in tissue viability, vascular care, and related fields, the BPS emphasises the importance of standardised ABPI testing practices within a holistic care framework. Key insights from the 2024 BPS include: - Diagnosing PAD and Compression Therapy: ABPI testing is critical for diagnosing Peripheral Arterial Disease (PAD) and safely initiating compression therapy for patients with leg ulcers. - Efficiency and Comfort with Automated Devices: Automated ABPI devices offer faster, easier, and more comfortable assessments compared to manual methods, streamlining care for patients and clinicians alike. - Improved Care Pathways: The BPS introduces a care pathway to efficiently integrate automated ABPI testing into practice, ensuring patients receive timely therapeutic compression. This guidance underscores the critical role of ABPI assessments in improving outcomes for patients with leg ulcers and highlights the need for training, accurate documentation, and holistic assessment to standardise and enhance care delivery. At BlueDop, our non-invasive, portable ABPI technology supports these goals by offering clinicians a faster, more accessible solution for vascular assessments. Together, we can help improve outcomes and set new standards in leg ulcer care.

Peripheral Artery Disease (PAD) affects millions worldwide, often remaining undiagnosed until it significantly impacts quality of life. Early detection is crucial for improving outcomes, particularly for at-risk patients. ABPI assessments are a key tool for early PAD detection, but traditional methods often face challenges like patient positioning and accessibility. BlueDop is changing that. With non-invasive, portable technology, BlueDop simplifies ABPI assessments - delivering fast, accurate, and reliable results. Patients benefit from greater comfort, and clinicians gain the tools they need to act sooner, improving care and outcomes.
