  2. • The sensitivity of supine perfusion index to predict spinal anesthesia-induced hypotension in elderly patients.

    Time frame: 30 minutes after spinal anesthesia

    • The sensitivity of supine perfusion index to predict spinal anesthesia-induced hypotension in elderly patients.

  3. • The sensitivity of sitting perfusion index to predict spinal anesthesia-induced hypotension in elderly patients.

    Time frame: 30 minutes after spinal anesthesia
