BEHAVIORAL

ABI/WIFI scoring

The initial ABI training workshop will be coordinated by the non-physician clinic staff champion, and all non-provider clinic staff will be asked to participate. The PI and a research assistant will conduct a 1.5-hour telemedicine training session instructing clinical staff in ABI measurement and WIfI and scoring, using the clinical scoring sheet. Following didactic teaching, participants will perform ABI tests under the guidance of the PI/research assistant and with the support of other participants. During each part of the workshop, specific attention will be directed to pitfalls and technical errors of the test. A pre-post assessment will be used to ensure comprehension of key concepts and performance of the ABI and WIfI tools.
