Why circulation testing matters in diabetes
Diabetes can affect foot circulation and wound healing. ABI, Doppler waveforms, toe pressure when available, and arterial duplex can help the treating doctor understand blood-flow status and plan wound or vascular care.
When to request assessment
Slow-healing foot wounds, weak pulses, cold feet, walking pain, numbness with vascular concern, or a referral from a diabetic foot clinic can be reasons to arrange vascular circulation assessment.
