About this study

After spinal anesthesia, hypotension is a common effect that occurs in between 15 and 30% of patients therefore it is essential to prevent such effect.

number of variables were utilized for estimating post spinal hypotension, such as assessing heart rate variability, perfusion index, inferior vena cava collapsibility index; however, the majority of these indices needs advanced equipment.

investigator of current research decided to study the role of ultrasound derived index namely pulsatility index to predict post spinal anesthesia hypotension.

Who can participate

Healthy volunteers accepted: No

Only the study team can determine whether someone qualifies for participation.

Inclusion criteria

  • adult patient undergoing infra-umbilical surgeries.

Exclusion criteria

  • coagulopathy peripheral vascular disease contraindication to spinal anesthesia

Treatment and study plan

Femoral artery Doppler

Device

femoral artery pulse wave doppler to measure both pulsatility and resistive indices

Primary outcomes

  1. change in pulsatility index to predict post spinal anesthesia induced hypotension

    Time frame: baseline and immediately after spinal anesthesia

    to measure PI before and after spinal anesthesia

Secondary outcomes

  1. change in resistive index to predict post spinal anesthesia induced hypotension

    Time frame: baseline and immediately after spinal anesthesia

    to measure RI before and after spinal anesthesia

  2. change in waveform morphology to predict post spinal hypotension

    Time frame: before and immediately after spinal anesthesia

    change of waveform morphology before and after spinal anesthesia
