[Development of a standardized form for mercury gauge plethysmography of veins and arteries].
Mercury strain gauge plethysmography will play an increasingly important role in vascular function exploration, participating in the detection of deep vein thrombosis and replacing arteriopathy in its arterio-capillary context. This required the development of a standardized reporting form for entering results of venous and arterial examinations and providing simple, clear evaluations of vascular function to assist therapeutic decisions. A standardized sheet in the form of rapidly scanned graphs and tables was established, this simplified representation facilitating decision making. Wider use of this type of form is proposed, with the aim of providing uniformity of data from mercury strain gauge plethysmography and statistical and computerized analysis of results of multicentre studies.
