Ankle Brachial Index, oh what a strange name,
But its purpose is noble, its mission is tame.
It measures blood flow, both high and low,
By comparing your ankles to your arms, so your doctors will know.

This simple test, so easy to take,
Can help diagnose and prevent a heartbreak.
It tells us if arteries are clogged or clear,
And gives us a warning, so we can steer
Our lives towards health, away from disease,
Towards a life of ease.

It may seem small, this test so precise,
But it can reveal problems, that we cannot surmise.
It measures the ratio, of pressure and flow,
And can tell us if we're in the green or the red zone.

So if you're at risk, for circulation in the legs,
Ask your doctor, about this simple test, with ease.
It can save your life, and help you to thrive,
And keep your circulation going strong and alive.
