Excerpt

The peripheral perfusion index (PFI), derived from the pulse oximetry signal, permits a quantitative analysis of the peripheral perfusion in patients. However, the relationship between variations of this index and variations in peripheral blood flow in critically ill patients has not been studied. We therefore studied the ability of the PFI to detect the vascular response produced by induced reactive hyperemia in critically ill patients. …
