Name Time Method Maximal percent flow-mediated dilation (%FMDmax) of the brachial arteryTimepoint: %FMDmax is determined between 30 sec and 3 minutes after release of complete occlusion of the brachial artery
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Intra-operator variabilityTimepoint: Compare %FMDmax determined between 30 sec and 3 minutes after release of complete occlusion of the brachial artery on Study Day 1 with %FMDmax determined between 30 sec and 3 minutes after release of complete occlusion of the brachial artery on Study Day 8.
