AHA Guidelines on PAD

The AHA recommends Ankle-Brachial Index (ABI) screening for patients at risk for PAD — including individuals 65 and older, those 50+ with diabetes or smoking history, and any patient with exertional leg symptoms.

Pulse4Physicians incorporates ABI (CPT 93923) as a core protocol element, alongside complementary autonomic and small-fiber testing.

American Diabetes Association

ADA Standards of Medical Care

The ADA Standards of Medical Care in Diabetes recommend annual PAD assessment for patients with diabetes — including ABI screening and autonomic dysfunction evaluation in symptomatic or long-duration diabetes patients.

The Pulse4Physicians protocol delivers the full ADA-recommended cardiovascular and autonomic workup in a single 15-minute visit.

Why This Matters

Recommended care, made operationally possible.

Most practices already know they should be screening for PAD. The barrier has always been operational — equipment cost, staff training, billing complexity. Pulse4Physicians removes the barrier so the standard of care becomes the standard practice.
