Summary

This study aims to explore the frequent occurrence of hypotension during anesthesia induction due to anesthetic drugs or fasting. Predicting this condition is important for patient safety and anesthesia management. The study examines two indices: the Pleth Variability Index (PVI), derived from pulse oximeter readings, and the Diastolic Shock Index (DSI), calculated using heart rate and diastolic blood pressure. While PVI is a well-known method, DSI has been less explored in predicting anesthesia-related hypotension. The study aims to compare the effectiveness of these two indices in forecasting hypotension during anesthesia induction.

Conditions

  • Anesthesia Induced Hypotension
  • Hypotension Drug-Induced

Interventions

DIAGNOSTIC_TEST

Pulse variability index measurement

Peripheral perfusion index (PI) is an easy-to-implement and low-cost monitoring procedure obtained by interpreting non-invasive data obtained from pulse oximetry via plethysmography. It is a tool that allows interpretation of fluid status through changes in pulse oximetry waves caused by respiration. High perfusion indices are interpreted as low arterial tone. Changes in perfusion index are interpreted as indicators of vascular tone or fluid deficit problems in patients. The ratio of the highest and lowest PI values gives the Pleth Variability Index (PVI) (3,4). Hypotension can be predicted during anesthesia induction with PVI

OTHER

Diastolic shock index

The Diastolic Shock Index (DSI) is a hemodynamic parameter calculated by dividing the heart rate (HR) by the diastolic blood pressure (DBP). It reflects the balance between cardiac output and systemic vascular resistance, particularly in critically ill patients. A higher DSI can indicate impaired vascular resistance and may be useful for predicting the need for vasopressor support, especially in conditions like septic shock. However, its application in predicting hypotension during anesthesia induction is still under investigation.
