3 Main Tests to Identify Asymptomatic Diseases
Sudomotor Test
-
The device stimulates the patient’s sweat glands by emitting a low voltage current through a glass plate.
-
Results for this test helps the physician determine if the patient is going to be at risk of vascular disease or neuropathy.
Autonomic Nervous System Test
-
We report the heart-rate variability with beat-to-beat blood pressure in the patient after deep-breathing, head-tilt and Valsalva maneuver tests and compare to base-line.
-
Many diseases of the nervous system identified.
Ankle-Brachial Index Test
-
A measurement of the ratio of blood pressure of the upper and lower body.
-
Results indicate if the patient is suffering from vascular disease.
-
Ability to test the vascular system at the micro-level.
proven standards of care
Testing of the autonomic nervous system (ANS) is the recommended standard of care by the American Diabetes Association for patients with Type 1 and Type 2 diabetes.
The American Heart Association Practice Guidelines for the management of patients with peripheral artery disease include the measurements of ankle-brachial index (ABI) in adults over 50 years old with a history of smoking, diabetes, or circulation problems, and all adults over 70 years old.
