First seen Mar 02, 2026 · Last updated Jun 12, 2026 · Updated 13 times

Summary

This study looked at 45 pregnant women having planned C-sections to see if a simple finger sensor (measuring perfusion index) could predict dangerous drops in blood pressure after spinal anesthesia. The goal was to find an easy, non-invasive way to identify high-risk patients so doctors can personalize care. The study was completed and focused on understanding the prediction tool, not on providing a new treatment.
