Perfusion Index in the Success of Peripheral Nerve Block

December 8, 2016 updated by: ILKE KUPELI, Erzincan University

Evaluation of Perfusion Index in the Success of Peripheral Nerve Block in Advanced Age Patients

After a successful peripheral nerve block, blockade of sympathetic nerve fibers results in local vasodilatation, increased local blood flow, and increased skin temperature.Increased permeability index; Can be used as a reliable tool for evaluating block activity.
