WatchBP Office ABI is a professional automatic office blood pressure measurement device
which can determine the ankle brachial index (ABI) and inter arm difference (IAD) fast
and accurately. The ABI is a measure for the assessment of peripheral arterial disease. The
WatchBP Office ABI can perform automated dual-arm measurements for the most reliable
IAD. In addition, the WatchBP office ABI can detect atrial fibrillation
ABI, IAD and Afib are all important prognostic indicators for cardiovascular risk which make
the WatchBP office ABI an important tool in the screening for cardiovascular risks.
