Abstract
BACKGROUND The peripheral perfusion index is the ratio of pulsatile to nonpulsatile static blood flow obtained by photoplethysmography and reflects peripheral tissue perfusion. We investigated the association between intraoperative perfusion index and postoperative acute kidney injury in patients undergoing major noncardiac surgery and receiving continuous vasopressor infusions. METHODS In this exploratory post hoc analysis of a pragmatic, cluster-randomised, multicentre trial, we obtained areas and cumulative times under various thresholds of perfusion index and investigated their association with acute kidney injury in multivariable logistic regression analyses. In secondary analyses, we investigated the association of time-weighted average perfusion index with acute kidney injury. The 30-day mortality was a secondary outcome. RESULTS Of 2534 cases included, 8.9% developed postoperative acute kidney injury. Areas and cumulative times under a perfusion index of 3% and 2% were associated with an increased risk of acute kidney injury; the strongest association was observed for area under a perfusion index of 1% (adjusted odds ratio [aOR] 1.32, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.00-1.74, P=0.050, per 100%∗min increase). Additionally, time-weighted average perfusion index was associated with acute kidney injury (aOR 0.82, 95% CI 0.74-0.91, P<0.001) and 30-day mortality (aOR 0.68, 95% CI 0.49-0.95, P=0.024). CONCLUSIONS Larger areas and longer cumulative times under thresholds of perfusion index and lower time-weighted average perfusion index were associated with postoperative acute kidney injury in patients undergoing major noncardiac surgery and receiving continuous vasopressor infusions.

Abstract
Background Capillary refill time (CRT) is the gold standard for evaluating peripheral organ perfusion; however, intraoperative CRT measurement is rarely used because it cannot be conducted continuously, and it is difficult to perform during general anesthesia. The peripheral perfusion index (PI) is another noninvasive method for evaluating peripheral perfusion. The PI can easily and continuously evaluate peripheral perfusion and could be an alternative to CRT for use during general anesthesia. This study aimed to determine the cutoff PI value for low peripheral perfusion status (prolonged CRT) by exploring the relationship between CRT and the PI during general anesthesia. Methods We enrolled 127 surgical patients. CRT and the PI were measured in a hemodynamically stable state during general anesthesia. A CRT >3 s indicated a low perfusion status. Results Prolonged CRT was observed in 27 patients. The median PI values in the non-prolonged and prolonged CRT groups were 5.0 (3.3-7.9) and 1.5 (1.2-1.9), respectively. There was a strong negative correlation between the PI and CRT (r = -0.706). The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve generated for the PI was 0.989 (95% confidence interval, 0.976-1.0). The cutoff PI value for detecting a prolonged CRT was 1.8. Conclusion A PI <1.8 could accurately predict a low perfusion status during general anesthesia in the operating room. A PI <1.8 could be used to alert the possibility of a low perfusion status in the operating room.

Abstract
AIMS AND OBJECTIVES To investigate the feasibility of using peripheral perfusion index (PPI) to monitor acute limb ischaemia (ALI) in newborns after catheterisations. BACKGROUND ALI is common complication of neonatal peripheral artery cannulation. It is important to address as soon as the early signs of ALI. PPI could aid in noninvasive evaluation of distal extremity perfusion in an effort to notify risk of potential ischaemic injury from catheterisations. DESIGN A nested case-control study. METHODS Clinical information of newborns who had been admitted to the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit of Jiangxi Provincial Children's Hospital and had received peripheral artery cannulation from January 2018 to January 2020 was prospectively collected. Transcutaneous blood oxygen saturation (TcSO2 ), PPI and delta-PPI (ΔPPI1; the difference in PPI values of the two arms. ΔPPI2; difference in the PPI values before and after cannulation) were recorded. We used STROBE checklist as an EQUATOR in this study. RESULTS A total of 25 newborns with ALI were included in the study. These were then paired with 100 newborns without ALI. The PPI and TcSO2 of the cannulated limb were significantly lower in the ALI group than in the non-ALI (NALI) group (p < .05). The area under the receiver-operating characteristic curve was significant for ΔPPI1. The ΔPPI1 had a sensitivity and specificity of 92% and 87%, respectively, for diagnosing ALI. ΔPPI1 greater than 0.315 suggested that the infant was at risk of ALI. CONCLUSIONS Monitoring the change in the PPI in newborns after catheterisations helped in the early assessment of ALI. RELEVANCE TO CLINICAL PRACTICE Drops in the PPI and TcSO2 of the cannulated limbs might, to some extent, reflect the possibility of ALI in newborns. ΔPPI1 (the difference in PPI values of the two arms) proved to be a simple, objective parameter to predict the presence of ALI.

Abstract
The plethysmographic peripheral perfusion index (PPI) is a very useful parameter with various emerging utilities in medical practice. The PPI represents the ratio between pulsatile and non-pulsatile portions in peripheral circulation and is mainly affected by two main determinants: cardiac output and balance between sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems. The PPI decreases in cases of sympathetic predominance and/or low cardiac output states; therefore, it is a useful predictor of patient outcomes in critical care units. The PPI could be a surrogate for cardiac output in tests for fluid responsiveness, as an objective measure of pain especially in un-cooperative patients, and as a predictor of successful weaning from mechanical ventilation. The PPI is simple to measure, easy to interpret, and has continuously displayed variables, making it a convenient parameter for detecting the adequacy of blood flow and sympathetic-parasympathetic balance.

Abstract
Background We hypothesised that in acute high-risk surgical patients, a lower intraoperative peripheral perfusion index (PPI) would indicate a higher risk of postoperative complications and mortality. Methods This retrospective observational study included 1338 acute high-risk surgical patients from November 2017 until October 2018 at two University Hospitals in Denmark. Intraoperative PPI was the primary exposure variable and the primary outcome was severe postoperative complications defined as a Clavien–Dindo Class ≥III or death, within 30 days. Results intraoperative PPI was associated with severe postoperative complications or death: odds ratio (OR) 1.12 (95% confidence interval [CI] 1.05–1.19; P<0.001), with an association of intraoperative mean PPI ≤0.5 and PPI ≤1.5 with the primary outcome: OR 1.79 (95% CI 1.09–2.91; P=0.02) and OR 1.65 (95% CI 1.20–2.27; P=0.002), respectively. Each 15-min increase in intraoperative time spend with low PPI was associated with the primary outcome (per 15 min with PPI ≤0.5: OR 1.11 (95% CI 1.05–1.17; P<0.001) and with PPI ≤1.5: OR 1.06 (95% CI 1.02–1.09; P=0.002)). Thirty-day mortality in patients with PPI ≤0.5 was 19% vs 10% for PPI >0.5, P=0.003. If PPI was ≤1.5, 30-day mortality was 16% vs 8% in patients with a PPI >1.5 (P<0.001). In contrast, intraoperative mean MAP ≤65 mm Hg was not significantly associated with severe postoperative complications or death (OR 1.21 [95% CI 0.92–1.58; P=0.2]). Conclusions Low intraoperative PPI was associated with severe postoperative complications or death in acute high-risk surgical patients. To guide intraoperative haemodynamic management, the PPI should be further investigated.

Abstract
BACKGROUND In a frail patient group often suffering from dehydration, hip fracture is potentially fatal partly because of the blood loss and thus deteriorated circulation. An important goal for haemodynamic monitoring and resuscitation is early detection of insufficient tissue perfusion. "The peripheral perfusion index" reflects changes in peripheral perfusion and blood volume. We hypothesize that hip fracture patients are hypovolaemic with poor peripheral perfusion and accordingly respond to controlled fluid resuscitation. The peripheral perfusion index might reflect restricted tissue perfusion in spite of stable central haemodynamic variables. METHODS This prospective observational study assess to what extend hip fracture patients suffer from hypovolaemia and respond to a stroke volume-guided fluid challenge. The secondary objectives are to evaluate correlation between the non-invasive peripheral perfusion index and minimally invasive measures of stroke volume, changes in blood volume and near-infrared spectroscopy determined tissue- and cerebral oxygenation and to compare results to prevalence of post-operative complications including mortality. We will include 50 patients (>65 years) presenting a hip fracture and treated in a multimodal fast-track regimen when written informed consent is available. DISCUSSION This is likely the first study to address pre-operative haemodynamic monitoring and resuscitation in hip fracture patients where adequate resuscitation is easily missed. We aim to evaluate feasibility of pre-operative stroke volume-guided haemodynamic optimization in the context of minimally- and non-invasive monitoring of peripheral perfusion and measure of blood volume.
