MedTech Edge’s Falcon uses pulse volume recording to simplify PAD diagnosis, delivering accurate, non-invasive vascular assessments with ease.
Pulse volume recording, employed by MedTech Edge, offers clinicians a refined methodology for assessing vascular conditions. Pulse volume recording, as implemented with the Falcon device, provides unparalleled insights into the arterial system, assisting in the diagnosis of Peripheral Arterial Disease (PAD).
Pulse Volume Recording (PVR) is a non-invasive test commonly used to assess blood flow in the lower limbs. It helps identify peripheral arterial disease (PAD) by measuring changes in limb volume caused by circulating blood.
This method relies on air plethysmography to track segmental volume variations in response to the cardiac cycle. A PVR machine records these changes, creating waveform patterns that indicate vascular health.
PVR offers a painless and efficient way to evaluate circulation, making it an essential tool for detecting arterial blockages at an early stage. Its high accuracy helps healthcare professionals diagnose PAD with confidence and develop effective treatment plans based on reliable vascular assessments.
