Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Sensitivity, specificity, PPV, NPV, and Prevalence of the oscillometric method to detect a low (<0.90) ABI were determined by usual formula, taking the Doppler method as the reference.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
The intra and interobserver variability of measurements were first assessed by the determination of the intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC) of agreement for each method. In order to determine methods with the best reproducibility (the lowest variability), 95% CI of these ICCs were then compared. A second analysis of intra- and inter-observer reproducibility were made by the Bland and Altman's method.
