Association between Preoperative Toe Perfusion Index and Maternal Core Temperature Decrease during Cesarean Delivery Under Spinal Anesthesia: A Prospective Cohort Study
2021-06-01
Abstract excerpt
<h4>Background: </h4> The main mechanism of temperature decrease during spinal anesthesia for cesarean delivery is core-to-peripheral redistribution of body heat, attributable to vasodilation. Perfusion index (PI) obtained with a pulse oximeter helps to assess peripheral perfusion dynamics by detecting changes in peripheral vascular tone. This study aimed to examine whether preoperative toe PI could predict spinal...
