Challenging current evidence: Peripheral perfusion index fails as a predictor of postinduction hypotension – Findings from a large diverse surgical population
Despite promising results from smaller studies, we found that preinduction PPI had no significant predictive value for PIH in a large, diverse surgical population. Anesthesiologists should focus on established risk factors rather than PPI when assessing PIH risk.
