The effect of patient positions on perfusion index [PDF]
Background The optimal position for surgery is one in which the patient is provided the best possible surgical intervention and put at minimum risk. Different surgical positions may cause changes in tissue perfusion.

Phenylephrine and Ephedrine for Prevention of Hypotension in Women during Lower Segment Caesarean Section under Spinal Anaesthesia: A Randomised Clinical Study [PDF]
Introduction: Hypotension is the most common serious adverse event associated with Spinal Anaesthesia (SA) and is associated with nausea and vomiting leading to pulmonary aspiration, respiratory depression and cardiac arrest.

Dyspnea: perfusion index and triage status
To determine the relationship between perfusion index and the emergency triage classification in patients admitted to the emergency department with dyspnea.Adult patients who presented with dyspnea and whose perfusion index values were measured with Masimo Radical-7 device at the time of admission, at the first hour and the second hour of admission ...

Estimating a regional ventilation-perfusion index [PDF]
This is a methods paper, where an approximation to the local ventilation-perfusion ratio is derived. This approximation, called the ventilation-perfusion index since it is not exactly the physiological ventilation-perfusion ratio, is calculated using conductivity reconstructions obtained using electrical impedance tomography.

Evaluation of Perfusion Index in Pediatric Trauma Patients
The aim of this study is to investigate the effectiveness of perfusion index (PI) measured by non-invasive pulse oximetry in the evaluation of pediatric trauma patients and to show its correlation with pediatric trauma score (PTS).Patients hospitalized in the pediatric intensive care unit due to trauma were examined between March 2017 and March 2018 ...
