Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
1) A correlation between the PI values and the degree of block success. 2) To determine the best cut off value for the PI in detection of block efficacy 3) To compare PI with the currently used techniques of patient response to cold, pinprick and motor blocked. 2) To determine the best cut off value for the PI in detection of block efficacy 3) To compare PI with the currently used techniques of patient response to cold, pinprick and motor blocked.Timepoint: Access every 3 minute till 30 minutes after block
