Brief summary
The main objective of this study is to evaluate the concordance of the variation in systolic pressure indices measured at the toe and ankle after a walking test in healthy volunteers.
Detailed description
Our secondary objectives are: * to evaluate the concordance between left- and right-side measures: systolic pressure indices measured at the toe after a walking test (healthy volunteers) * to evaluate the concordance between left- and right-side measures: systolic pressure indices measured at the ankle after a walking test (healthy volunteers) * to evaluate the concordance of the variation in systolic pressure indices measured at the toe and ankle during the recuperation phase after a walking test (5 and 10 minutes after end of walking test) in healthy volunteers
Interventions
PROCEDUREAnkle first
1. Brachial blood pressure on both the left and right (BBP-LR) sides is measured, as well as at the left and right ankles (BPA-LR). 2. A 15 minute walking test (WT) is performed. 3. BBP-LR and BPA-LR are re-measured. 4. 2 hours of rest. 5. BBP-LR and the blood pressure at the left and right big toes (BPT-LR) are measured. 6. WT is reperformed. 7. BBP-LR and BPT-LR are re-measured.
