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.
198 studies on the registry are indexed under Complex Regional Pain Syndromes; 55 are open to participants now.
This study's planned enrollment of 25 is below the median of 40 across 146 interventional studies indexed under Complex Regional Pain Syndromes.

Exclusion Criteria:
Unilateral lumbar sympathetic blockade using chirocaine
Procedure: lumbar sympathetic block
unilateral lumbar sympathetic block at L3 level using 0.2% chirocaine under C-arm fluoroscopy

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
Time frame: 1 minute at intervals from baseline through end of procedure
skin temperature changes
foot temperature change from baseline
Time frame: 1 minute at intervals during procedure
electrocardiogram
heart rate variability measurement
Time frame: 1 minute at intervals from baseline through end of procedure
