- 28. Conclusion • CIMT is indicator of subclinical atherosclerosis • CIMT can predict the risk of future CV events • Other single or combined parameters could be more predictive of future CV events than CIMT

Notas do Editor
- Typically, normal common carotid CIMT at age 10 is approximately 0.4 to 0.5 mm, while from the fifth decade of life onward this progresses to 0.7 to 0.8 mm or more [3].
- Measurement in diastole: systolic expansion of lumen causes the CIMT to become thinner. Measurement
- Until additional data are available that directly correlate CIMT measurement with improvements in hard outcomes (ie, death, myocardial infarction, stroke), we do not recommend routine CIMT measurement.
- While the highest ankle pressure is used in most studies, the sensitivity for the detection of a relevant arterial occlusion disease of 68% was able to be increased to 93% with a comparable specificity of almost 100% in a current study for an ABI < 0.9 by using the lowest foot artery pressure value.
