2 Fig 1 Agreement (%) between interpretations of two replicated studies and the cut point for pathologic reflux. Journal of Vascular Surgery  , DOI: ( /j.jvs ) Copyright © 2012 Society for Vascular Surgery Terms and Conditions

3 Fig 2 Reproducibility of reflux time (rt) measurements. Bland-Altman plot is shown (A) before the educational intervention and (B) after the educational intervention (facilitated reproducibility). Mean (M) = (rt1 + rt2)/2; absolute difference = rt1 – rt2. SD, standard deviation. Journal of Vascular Surgery  , DOI: ( /j.jvs ) Copyright © 2012 Society for Vascular Surgery Terms and Conditions

4 Fig 3 The difference (absolute value) between reflux time (rt) measured at different times of the day was proportional to the magnitude of reflux time. Mean = (rt1 + rt2)/2; absolute difference = rt1 – rt2. Journal of Vascular Surgery  , DOI: ( /j.jvs ) Copyright © 2012 Society for Vascular Surgery Terms and Conditions

5 Fig 4 Agreement (percent) between reflux time (rt) measured at different times of the day is shown in the Bland-Altman plot. Mean (M) = (rt1 + rt2)/2; difference = 100% × (rt1 – rt2)/mean. SD, standard deviation. Journal of Vascular Surgery  , DOI: ( /j.jvs ) Copyright © 2012 Society for Vascular Surgery Terms and Conditions

6 Fig 5 Agreement between the measurements performed using manual or automatic compression–decompression is shown in Bland-Altman plot. Mean (M) = (rt1 + rt2)/2; difference = rt1 – rt2. SD, standard deviation. Journal of Vascular Surgery  , DOI: ( /j.jvs ) Copyright © 2012 Society for Vascular Surgery Terms and Conditions

7 Fig 6 Agreement between the measurements performed with patients in the two different positions is shown in the Bland-Altman plot. Mean (M) = (rt1 + rt2)/2; difference = rt1 – rt2. SD, standard deviation. Journal of Vascular Surgery  , DOI: ( /j.jvs ) Copyright © 2012 Society for Vascular Surgery Terms and Conditions
