A member asked:

Radial artery shows low monophasic flow psv 12.3 cm/s @elbow, 8.8 cm/s at wrist. is low monophasic flow a good thing? if not what complications can u get from it?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Radial artery: Was this study done because of a poor radial pulse or symptoms of forearm discomfort or low blood pressure on a wrist monitor? Low monophasic flow generally indicates arterial disease. However the study can be a false positive if you have a naturally very thin radial artery. Your vascular surgeon is best qualified to evaluate and advise you.
