Résumé
The peripheral perfusion index (PI) is derived from pulse oximetry and is defined as the ratio of the pulse wave of the pulsatile portion (arteries) to the non-pulsatile portion (venous and other tissues). A growing number of clinical studies have supported the use of PI in various clinical scenarios, such as guiding hemodynamic management and serving as an indicator of outcome and organ function. In this review, we will introduce and discuss this traditional but neglected indicator of the peripheral microcirculatory perfusion. Further clinical trials are required to clarify the normal and critical values of PI for different monitoring devices in various clinical conditions, to establish different standards of PI-guided strategies, and to determine the effect of PI-guided therapy on outcome.
