Brief Summary

Anesthesia alters microcirculation and tissue oxygen saturation (StO2). We sought to examine changes in StO2 using near-infrared spectroscopy and a vascular occlusion test (VOT) during spinal anesthesia. This prospective observational study was included 51 patients without comorbidities who underwent elective surgery under spinal anesthesia. We measured the StO2 in the lower extremity during VOT before and after intrathecal injection.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Change of recovery slope between baseline and after spinal anesthesia

    Recovery slope is related to microvascular reactivity, was calculated from the deflation of the tourniquet until the recovery of tissue oxygen saturation to the highest value

    baseline and immediately after spinal anesthesia

Interventions

The VOT procedure was conducted twice in each patient, before and 15 min after intrathecal injection. An NIRS sensor (INVOSTM 5100C Cerebral/Somatic Oximeter; Medtronic, Minneapolis, MN, USA) was attached to the patient's gastrocnemius muscle. A tourniquet (A.T.S ® 3000 Automatic Tourniquet System; Zimmer Inc., Warsaw, IL, USA) was applied to the thigh and inflated to a pressure value 50 mmHg over the patient's baseline systolic blood pressure in the leg and maintained for 5 min. After a 5-min ischemic period, the tourniquet was rapidly deflated to 0 mmHg. The StO2 data was continuously recorded during the VOT procedure. After confirmation of spinal anesthesia using cold sensitivity, the VOT procedure was repeated in the same manner as mentioned above. The occlusion slope and recovery slope were calculated based on the measured StO2 data.
