Abstract
This is the study done in our Hospital Government Stanley Hospital, Department of General Surgery. The following study is a prospective study, for which ethical clearance was obtained. No. of Patients studied were 50, and consent was taken from all the patients. The Patients studied were diabetic, which included all types of Type II DM patients on treatment and with foot infections. No individuals with rest pain, or signs suggestive of lower limb critical ischaemia and other causes of peripheral neuropathy or history of reconstructive vascular surgery were taken into consideration. The study period was from January 2013 to December 2013. After doing thorough history taking and clinical examination, including proprio reception, capillary blood glucose, arterial colour duplex imaging (CDU) and ankle brachial pressure index (ABPI) were done in the all the patients. The sensitivity and specificity of ABPI was compare with CDU. We concluded that ABPI has high specificity (85.71%) and Low sensitivity (72.72%) has compare to CDU. The overall agreement of ABPI with CDU was poor.
