Blood pressure and fluid management during surgery
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This trial tests a new tool that helps doctors manage fluids and blood pressure during surgery. It uses a special index (HPI) and computer-assisted fluid management to keep your blood pressure stable, which may reduce complications.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years or older
- Your surgery requires general anesthesia lasting more than 2 hours
- You will have an arterial line to continuously measure blood pressure
- Your doctor plans to keep your mean blood pressure at 65 mmHg or higher during surgery
- Your overall health before surgery is rated as ASA 4 or less (a standard anesthesia risk score)
- You do not have severe low blood pressure before surgery, severe heart failure, or need emergency surgery

This study tests whether a special computer tool (called the Hypotension Prediction Index) can help anesthesiologists keep your blood pressure from dropping too low during major abdominal surgery. By using this tool, doctors hope to reduce the risk of low blood pressure during surgery and improve safety for older frail adults.
This study tests whether an AI tool can help doctors better manage low blood pressure during planned surgeries. If you are having an elective surgery with general anesthesia and need an arterial line for monitoring, this trial may be for you.
This trial is testing a computer program that helps doctors keep your blood pressure stable during surgery. It might improve safety and recovery by automatically adjusting anesthesia doses to keep your pressure in a healthy range.
This trial tests a new, non-invasive way to predict drops in blood pressure during major hip, knee, pelvis, or spine surgery. The goal is to help doctors prevent low blood pressure, which can lead to complications.
This trial compares two ways to measure blood pressure during robot-assisted prostate surgery: a cuff on the arm (oscillometric) vs. a tiny tube in an artery (intraarterial). It aims to see if the cuff method is just as reliable, which could make monitoring simpler and less invasive.
This trial tests whether keeping blood pressure at 85 mmHg or higher during surgery can reduce confusion (delirium) after surgery. It is for older adults with high blood pressure who are having non-cardiac surgery.
