Detailed Description
The secondary objectives of this study are:
A. To assess the prevalence of Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm (AAA) detected by ultrasound measurement of the anterior and posterior longitudinal outer diameter of the sub-renal abdominal aorta in a high cardiovascular risk population consulting with general practitioners (defined according to recommendations stated by the French Society of Vascular Medicine).
B. To assess the prevalence of Peripheral Obliterative Arteriopathy of the Legs (POAL) by measuring the Systolic Pressure Index (SPI) at the toe (ratio of arterial pressure in upper limbs versus lower limbs). Measures are made by a general practitioner in the same population.
C. To assess the quality and interpretability of ultrasound recordings and ultrasound acquistion failure rate. These second measures are made by an expert in vascular medecine. This evaluation with use a 3-level scale:
- appropriate image was not obtained or not recognized expert - uninterpretable
- poor image quality - interpretable
- image of good or very good quality - interpretable
D. To calculate the impact of risk cofactors such as hypertension , smoking, age and family history among patients diagnosed with AAA.
E. Evaluation of general practitioner training from a qualitative and quantitative point of view after 4 h of training organized by Dr. Bobbià .

The study population
See inclusion/exclusion criteria. Intervention: First ultrasound reading Intervention: Second ultrasound interpretation |
First ultrasound reading of the sub-renal abdominal aorta by a general practitioner.
The untrasound images recorded by general practitioners will be interpreted a second time by an expert in vascular medecine, and evaluated for their image quality.
