Low blood pressure after surgery in the recovery room study
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study looks at how often low blood pressure happens after surgery in the recovery room. It helps doctors understand and better manage blood pressure in patients who just had general anesthesia.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years old or older.
- You are having surgery under general anesthesia (you will be asleep during the procedure).
- You will wake up in the recovery room (PACU) after surgery, not the ICU.
- You do not have a history of hard-to-treat low blood pressure before surgery.
- You have not been taking sedatives or psychiatric medications long-term that could affect your thinking or mood.

Other trials that look related to this one.
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 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.
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 whether noradrenaline is better than standard care for preventing dangerously low blood pressure during surgery. If you are having non-cardiac surgery that lasts at least an hour and are expected to stay overnight, this study may be for you.
This study looks at whether people who have low blood pressure after eating are also more likely to have low blood pressure after starting general anesthesia. It may help doctors better predict and manage blood pressure drops during non-heart surgeries in older adults.
This study looks at how blood pressure medications affect low blood pressure episodes that happen during and after heart surgery. Researchers want to understand if the number of blood pressure drugs you take before surgery changes how your body handles blood pressure during the operation.
