Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
To determine the perfusion index (PI) and PI ratio as predictors of successful supraclavicular brachial plexus blockTimepoint: From the time of giving block to 30mins after the block is been given—

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
To determine the trend of PI once peripheral nerve block has been administered To determine best cut off value of PI for detection of block efficacy To determine the correlation between the PI values and the degree of block (assessing the sensory and motor blockade) Timepoint: From the time of giving block to 30mins after the block is been given—
