Predictive Ability of Perfusion Index for Determining the Success of Adductor Canal Nerve Block for Postoperative Analgesia in Patients Undergoing Unilateral Total Knee Arthroplasty

Predictive Ability of Perfusion Index for Determining the Success of Adductor Canal Nerve Block for Postoperative Analgesia in Patients Undergoing Unilateral Total Knee Arthroplasty

Background: The perfusion index (PI) is an objective method used to determine a successful nerve block. This study aimed to investigate the prognostic ability of the PI for a successful adductor canal nerve block (ACB) and suggest the optimal PI cut-off value for predicting a block. Methods: This st...
