Comparison of Three Methods of Hemoglobin Monitoring

Completed · Not applicable

Conditions studied: Digital Block

In brief

This study will further investigate the Masimo SpHb \[FDA Approved\] continuous non-invasive hemoglobin monitor in spine surgery patients. (See NCT00792597) We will investigate the effect of enhanced circulation to the finger (which will be attached to the sensor) following a local injection (digital block) of lidocaine (an FDA approved local anesthetic), and assess the accuracy of the SpHb reading as it relates to a standard laboratory hemoglobin value (tHb).
