Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
1. To calculate the mean percentage rise in perfusion index from the baseline in successful blocks. 2. To determine the cut off values for Perfusion Index (PI) and PI ratio that predicts block success.Timepoint: 30 minutes.—

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
1. To compare PI between blocked and nonblocked limbs. 2. To assess and compare hemodynamic parameters: Heart Rate, SPO2, Systolic Blood Pressure, Diastolic Blood Pressure in successful vs unsuccessful group.Timepoint: 30 minutes.—
