Predicting low blood pressure during major abdominal surgery
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This trial tests a tool that predicts drops in blood pressure during major abdominal surgery. It may help doctors manage blood pressure better during and after surgery.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are scheduled for major abdominal surgery that will last over two hours or may involve significant blood loss.
- You have an ASA physical status score of III or IV (meaning you have a serious health condition).
- You are 18 years or older.
- You have health insurance.
- You are not pregnant.
- You do not have severe heart problems like congenital heart disease, severe valve disease, heart failure with low pumping ability, or certain irregular heart rhythms.

This trial tests if noninvasive blood pressure cuff measurements before surgery can help predict low blood pressure during surgery for people having non-cardiac surgery.
This trial is testing a non-invasive device that predicts low blood pressure during surgery. It aims to help doctors prevent dangerous drops in blood pressure, making surgery safer for patients.
This study tests special ways of analyzing blood-pressure recordings during major surgery to better understand why some people develop low blood pressure (hypotension). If you have high blood pressure and need invasive blood-pressure monitoring, your surgery team will use readings to study patterns that may help predict or prevent low blood pressure.
This trial tests a new monitoring tool that predicts drops in blood pressure before they happen during major aortic surgery. It may help doctors keep your blood pressure more stable during the procedure.
This study looks at a way to predict low blood pressure during head and neck free flap surgery (when tissue is moved from one place to another). If successful, it may help the surgical team prevent complications by preparing earlier.
This study is testing a new tool called the Hypotension Prediction Index to help predict and prevent dangerously low blood pressure during surgery. It may be especially helpful for older, frail patients having long abdominal surgeries.
