Study Summary

The SPARK Study evaluates changes in peripheral sympathetic vasomotor activity following a targeted, ultrasound-guided periarterial sympathetic block of the distal radial artery in healthy volunteers. Autonomic reactivity will be assessed before and after the block using digit-specific pulse-amplitude index and infrared thermography during standardized cold pressor testing.

Primary Outcome

Pulse Amplitude Index (PAI) is a noninvasive measure of digital perfusion derived from photoplethysmography (PPG) signals recorded from the fingers. PAI reflects changes in pulse waveform amplitude and serves as an indirect marker of peripheral blood flow and sympathetic vasomotor tone. In this study, PAI will be continuously recorded using digital sensors placed on the index and fifth fingers of the hand undergoing periarterial radial block, as well as the contralateral index finger.
