Frailty and blood pressure changes after anesthesia
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study looks at whether frailty (general weakness or low physical reserve) is linked to drops in blood pressure after anesthesia. If you are having surgery, they will measure how frail you are and see if that affects your blood pressure during anesthesia.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are scheduled for surgery with general anesthesia (you will be asleep during the procedure).
- You can communicate well with the care team and have no serious memory or thinking problems.
- This is not an emergency surgery.
- You do not have active cancer, an acute infection, or a serious recent illness (like a heart attack, stroke, or severe COPD flare-up).
- You have not been hospitalized or had surgery in the last month.

This study looks at how frailty affects blood pressure changes when older adults receive spinal anesthesia for surgery. It may help doctors predict and manage blood pressure drops better in frail patients.
This study looks at a simple scoring system (EASIX) that predicts whether older or frail patients will experience dangerous blood pressure drops when anesthesia is given before surgery. Understanding this risk might help doctors better protect vulnerable patients during their operations.
This study looks at what causes low blood pressure after anesthesia starts in older patients with cancer who are having surgery. It may help doctors prevent complications.
This study looks at whether a patient's level of frailty (overall weakness and health before surgery) affects their risk of acute kidney injury after non-cardiac surgery, and whether blood pressure changes during surgery play a role in that link.
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.
This study tests a computer model that uses heart-rhythm measurements to predict whether your blood pressure will drop dangerously after anesthesia begins. If accurate, it could help doctors prepare and protect you during surgery.
