Sir can you please tell us the source of.. This probe fixator... The supplier or the company... We are doing studies regarding FMD in Rheumatological diseases.. Not able to arrange the probe fixator
Hi Devender, the probe holder we use is this one: www.flexbar.com/products/magnetic-base-with-arms Picture 3 is the exact one we have (SKU10995). You will need a little probe holder that holds the actual ultrasound probe and attaches to the clamp in the link abobe. Essentially, this small clamp was made by our lab technician and allows the ultrasound probe to be slotted into place and then connected to the above clamp (this can be seen from 1min30sec in the video). The arm holder was also made by our lab technician, but in previous labs, I have used a pillow over a table to secure the arm, and that worked absolutely fine. The main thing is that the participant feels comfortable throughout the duration of the test. Good luck with your studies, and please get in touch if you would like any further information.

Fantastic video thank you. Do you have any links to the papers detailing the wrist vs forearm position for occlusion?
Thanks Alfie. Yes, this is the paper that compares upper arm occlusion with wrist occlusion: pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/11724650/
