Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion Criteria:
- Physically examined for complex regional pain syndrome on lower extremity,
- Scheduled for diagnostic lumbar sympathetic blockade.
Exclusion Criteria:
- Graded as ASA 3 or higher,
- Below 18 or above 70 years of age, or

Arm Label
lumbar sympathetic block

Arm Description
Unilateral lumbar sympathetic blockade using chirocaine
Outcomes
Primary Outcome Measures
Index of sympathetic block
change of slope of signals of the alternative current and the direct current from foot
The baseline is defined as the point of surgical drap.
The end of procedure is decided when the temperature of foot is increased more than 2 degrees from baseline within 20 minutes after local anesthetics injection
Secondary Outcome Measures
skin temperature changes
foot temperature change from baseline
electrocardiogram
heart rate variability measurement

5. Study Description
Brief Summary
This study aims to compare the alternative current and the direct current signal changes of photoplethysmography between both feet during one side lumbar sympathetic block.
The hypothesis is that signal changes occur earlier than other indices to decide whether it is successful following lumbar sympathetic block on only one-side.
