Contraindications for lower extremity arterial physiologic evaluation include, but are not limited to:

• Morbidly obese patients in whom a high-thigh pressure may be not obtainable
• Casts, dressings, staples and/or open wounds
• Suspected or known acute deep venous thrombosis (DVT)
• Incompressible vessels with arterial calcification (TBI may be obtained)
• Post-interventional procedure (e.g., stenting, bypass graft)
• Recent surgery, trauma, ulcers, casts or dressings that should not be compressed by a blood pressure cuff
• Involuntary movement/tremors may render waveform collection suboptimal or unreliable
