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.
