Abstract
Objective: To evaluate the diagnostic value of color Doppler ultrasound in the diagnosis of diabetic lower extremity vascular diseases. Methods: 48 patients with diabetic lower extremity vascular disease admitted in our hos-pital from September 2018 to September 2019 were included in the study and divided into the observation group, and another 48 patients with the same period of health examination in our hospital were included in the study and divided into the control group. Both groups used color Doppler ultrasound to detect the blood flow of lower extremity vessels. The incidence of blood flow, vascular diameter and stenosis, occlusion and arteriosclerosis of the lower extremity were observed. Results: The blood flow and vascular di-ameter of the lower extremity in the observation group were significantly lower than those in the control group (p
Highlights
Diabetes is one of the most common chronic diseases with a high incidence in China, mainly among the middle-aged and the elderly [1]
The symptoms of lower extremity arterial disease at the early stage are not obvious without any specific symptoms, but they can be diagnosed by color Doppler ultrasound, which has the advantages of non-invasiveness, simple operation, good economy and good repeatability
This study aims to analyze the clinical value of color Doppler Ultrasound in the diagnosis of diabetic lower extremity arterial disease
Summary
Diabetes is one of the most common chronic diseases with a high incidence in China, mainly among the middle-aged and the elderly [1]. Diabetic patients mainly present with elevated blood sugar. If their blood sugar is not controlled effectively, it may induce other diseases, especially various cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, resulting in atherosclerosis. The symptoms of lower extremity arterial disease at the early stage are not obvious without any specific symptoms, but they can be diagnosed by color Doppler ultrasound, which has the advantages of non-invasiveness, simple operation, good economy and good repeatability. It has clinic value for diagnosing lower extremity arterial disease. This study aims to analyze the clinical value of color Doppler Ultrasound in the diagnosis of diabetic lower extremity arterial disease
