Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

The objective of this study is to demonstrate that the investigational device, AngioDefender, is comparable to the established procedure referred to as 'brachial artery ultrasound imaging' in their abilities to quantify flow-mediated vasodilation of the brachial artery.

Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Experimental: AngioDefender

The AngioDefender device uses a novel, proprietary software algorithm to analyze pulse wave amplitude data collected before and after BA occlusion by a standard upper arm sphygmomanometric blood pressure (BP) cuff. The procedure is non-invasive and employs neither ultrasound nor Doppler flow analysis.

Device: AngioDefender

Active Comparator: Brachial Artery Ultrasound Imaging

A non-invasive procedure for detecting endothelial dysfunction by measuring the flow-mediated dilation of the brachial artery (BA) using high resolution continuous ECG-gated B-mode (2D) ultrasound imaging during reactive hyperemia, a state of transient increase in tissue blood flow that occurs following a brief period of ischemia, e.g., BA occlusion. BA diameter is measured at end-diastole, coincident with the R wave of a simultaneously recorded ECG.

Device: Ultrasound

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. Statistical equivalence of %FMD determined by AngioDefender vs brachial artery ultrasound imaging (BAUI) [1 day]

    Deming regression analysis and Bland-Altman Plots

Secondary Outcome Measures

  1. Comparison of types and incidences of emergent adverse device effects [1 day]
