Understand your intermittent claudication symptoms and potential peripheral artery disease (PAD) using our easy online tool. Input your walking test data and ABI (Ankle-Brachial Index) for an immediate, interpretive assessment of your vascular health. Essential for tracking progress and discussing with your doctor.
Formula:
Understanding your Intermittent Claudication assessment involves interpreting several key measurements. This calculator uses your input for:
- Resting ABI: Ankle-Brachial Index at rest, comparing blood pressure in your ankle to your arm. A key indicator for PAD.
- Time to Pain Onset (s): How long you can walk before claudication pain begins during a graded exercise test.
- Maximum Walking Time (s): The total duration you can walk during the test before stopping due to pain or fatigue.
- Severity of Claudication Pain (1-5): Your self-reported pain level (1=mild, 5=severe, stopping exercise).
