NCT ID NCT07279805
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looked at 40 adults having leg surgery to see if a simple finger sensor (peripheral perfusion index) could predict a dangerous drop in blood pressure after spinal anesthesia. The goal was to help doctors prepare and prevent complications. The study was observational, meaning no treatment was given, just measurements taken.
