What they're measuring

Cut off value for perfusion index ( PI ) for predication of successful supraclavicular brachial plexus block.

Timeframe: Perfusion index (PI) was recorded at baseline and at 10, 20, and 30 minutes after local anaesthetic injection in both the blocked limb and the contralateral unblocked limb.
