Arterial obstruction refers to the blockage of an artery, which can impede blood flow to various tissues and organs. This obstruction can be caused by a variety of factors, including atherosclerosis (buildup of plaque), blood clots, or external compression. Symptoms may vary depending on the location and severity of the obstruction, potentially leading to conditions such as ischemia or tissue damage. Timely diagnosis and treatment are crucial to restore adequate blood flow and prevent complications.

An ankle-brachial index (ABI) test may not be accurate in a patient with a PICC line due to potential obstruction of arterial blood flow in the arm where the line is placed. This can lead to falsely elevated ABI results. It is important to assess other methods for peripheral arterial disease diagnosis in such cases.
