Brief summary
The assessment of peripheral capillary oxygen saturation (SpO2) by pulse oximetry has become standard in perioperative care for the detection of hypoxaemia. The oxygen reserve index (ORI) can provide an early warning of deteriorating oxygenation long before a change in SpO2 occurs, reflect the response to oxygen administration, facilitate oxygen titration and prevent unwanted hyperoxia. The combination of ORI with pulse oximetry can help to accurately adjust inhaled oxygen concentration and prevent hypo- and hyperoxaemia. In spinal anaesthesia, neuraxial blockade can cause paralysis of accessory respiratory muscles and theoretically lead to bronchospasm. Therefore, in this study, the investigators planned to perform oxygen saturation monitoring using two modalities. The investigators wanted to investigate the correlation between ORI, SpO2, oxygen therapy and the degree of sensory block.
Detailed description
The assessment of peripheral capillary oxygen saturation (SpO2) by pulse oximetry has become standard in perioperative care for the detection of hypoxaemia. The oxygen reserve index (ORI) can provide an early warning of deteriorating oxygenation long before a change in SpO2 occurs, reflect the response to oxygen administration, facilitate oxygen titration and prevent unwanted hyperoxia. The combination of ORI with pulse oximetry can help to accurately adjust inhaled oxygen concentration and prevent hypo- and hyperoxaemia. In spinal anaesthesia, neuraxial blockade can cause paralysis of accessory respiratory muscles and theoretically lead to bronchospasm. The respiratory effects of neuraxial blockade up to mid-thoracic level are minimal in patients without lung disease. While the intercostal muscles may be paralysed by thoracic block, diaphragmatic function is preserved. Therefore, in this study, the investigators planned to perform oxygen saturation monitoring using two modalities. The investigators wanted to investigate the correlation between ORI, SpO2, oxygen therapy and the degree of sensory block.

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| The primary outcome of this study is to assess the correlation between the need for oxygen therapy, the ascension of sensory block level, and changes in Oxygen Reserve Index (ORi). | 9 months | The primary outcome measure of this study is to evaluate the potential correlation between three variables: the need for supplemental oxygen therapy, the cephalad progression of sensory block level, and fluctuations in oxygen reserve index (ORi) values. |
