Why Early Detection Matters:

Peripheral Artery Disease (P.A.D.) often goes unnoticed until it reaches an advanced stage, leading to severe complications and increased healthcare costs. Detecting P.A.D. in its early stages is crucial for patient well-being.

Untreated P.A.D. can result in heart attacks, strokes, amputations, or even death. The sooner it’s detected, the better the chances of preventing these devastating outcomes. Timely intervention, medical management, and lifestyle changes can significantly improve a patient’s prognosis.

Product Details

simpleABI-450CL Automated Cuff-Link System – Single-Level + Exercise

Newman Medical’s PC-based SimpleABI systems are specifically designed to provide quick and easy results when diagnosing lower extremity peripheral artery disease. These systems not only save time during examinations but also reduce staff training and re-training time due to their user-friendly interface.

With simpleABI, accurate full-page reports are quickly produced with the necessary documentation for reimbursement. The exam is made easy by following the report being generated on the computer screen, eliminating the need for memorizing complex menus or protocols. Since the system automatically generates the report, there’s no need for secondary downloading steps to store, print, or share the results.

Cuff-Link Main Control

The Cuff-Link main control unit is, quite simply, an integrated speed machine. The simpleABI 450CL integrates:

A 4-port cuff selector
Interchangeable Doppler probes
Pressure sensors
A pump
Control software

The integration of these features streamlines the exam process, rendering it quicker and more straightforward while effectively reducing costly errors.

Cuff-link Remote

The Cuff-link remote allows the user to step through the exam with remote push-button simplicity.

Effortlessly move from one site to another
Clearly visible display of the current cuff pressure
Push button inflation
Automated cuff deflation for accurate pressure readings
One button waveform creation

Software

Powerful yet simpleABI 450CL software saves you time and is what sets the simpleABI systems apart. The software is an integrated part of the system; no separate downloading of the data is needed.

Automatic index calculations, avoiding potential errors
Automatically stores each exam with time stamp
Your logo and contact information can be shown on the report
Your physicians, operators and interpreters can be on drop-down editable menus
Drop down ICD-10 codes
Suggested CPT codes and interpretation of results are shown
Multiple and selectable formats to store the reports: PDF, TIFF, CSV, BMP, JPG
DICOM software is available as an option

Reports

The 450CL software provides a complete set of tests and reports for lower extremity arterial evaluation. The tests that can be done with the simpleABI 450CL include:

Single Level Exams – Single level exams for diagnosing obstruction. Meets equipment requirements for CPT code 93922.
- ABI-Q (Quick PVR Assessment) – A PVR based 1-2 minute exam to quickly assess the patient for the presence/absence of PAD.
- ABI (Ankle Brachial Index) – with dual ankle Doppler pressures and PVR waveforms. This is the fundamental PAD exam.
- ABI with Toe (Ankle Brachial Index + Toe or TBI) – with dual ankle Doppler pressures and PVR waveforms. PPG or Doppler can be used on toes. Typically used if the patient has calcified vessels the ABI cannot be obtained.
ABI Exercise Exams – Vascular exercise exams. Useful for pseudo claudication if the patient has PAD symptoms but the resting ABI is normal or questionable.
- ABI with Exercise – Single level exam performed pre and post exercise. Can be done with provocative maneuvers or treadmill protocol. Meets requirements for CPT code 93923.
- ABI Stress with Treadmill – Single level exam performed pre and post exercise. When used with the specified treadmill protocol meets equipment requirements for CPT code 93924.

Doppler

The Cuff-link includes a built-in Doppler using Newman Medical’s sensitive, interchangeable probes. Cuff-link Dopplers have the sensitivity and audio response to allow you to hear the blood flow sounds quickly and clearly.

Our unique magnetic probe holder won’t crack or break and gently cradles the probe when not being used. The open design avoids gathering dirt, gel and germs.

The Cuff-link speaker is a powerful high fidelity speaker that has an extraordinarily smooth and rich response over the whole range of Doppler sounds.

Vascular sensors

All Cuff-link vascular probes provide the sensitivity and reliability you need. All probes will work on all Cuff-links for maximum versatility. Our 5 and 8 MHz vascular probes have a smooth contour design that is comfortable to hold, comfortable for the patient, and easy to clean.

5 MHz probes provide excellent deep penetration for deeper arteries like the femoral, popliteal and brachial, and for deep veins
8 MHz probes are especially sensitive for vessels near the surface like the radial, posterior tibial, and dorsalis pedis arteries.
SPPG probe is a PPG probe used with newer simpleABI Cuff-Link Systems (serial numbers > CL404000 or CL804000) to produce PPG waveforms during TBI exams, especially for toe examinations when ankle arteries are calcified or occluded.
The simpleABI 450CL comes with 8 MHz and PPG probes; the 5 MHz is optional.

Cuffs

The simpleABI 450CL system comes with a complete set of specialized vascular cuffs. They are a washable soft material over a non-latex bladder. The cuffs are long enough to completely encircle the limb. The set includes:

2 x 10cm EZ-Clean Vasocuffs
2 x 12cm EZ-Clean Vasocuffs
2 x 1.9cm disposable digit cuffs

Computer

The computer currently supplied as an optional component of the simpleABI system is a robust netbook computer.

Operating system: Windows 11
11.6 inch diagonal screen
4 GB memory
500 GB HDD
Wireless/Bluetooth capability
6 to 8 hour battery

These specifications are subject to change as computers change rapidly.
