Blood pressure changes during surgery to guide fluid needs
Part of Heart & circulation, Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This trial looks at how a breathing maneuver during surgery can safely lower blood pressure and help doctors decide whether you need extra fluids. It may help guide your care during surgery to keep you stable and reduce complications.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years or older
- You are scheduled for an elective (non-emergency) surgery that is not on the heart or chest, and you will receive general anesthesia
- You do not have serious heart or lung conditions, such as heart failure (ejection fraction below 40%), irregular heartbeat, or COPD
- You do not have severe peripheral artery disease or a body mass index (BMI) over 40
- You are not pregnant and can provide written consent to participate

This study looks at how blood pressure changes during the start of open heart surgery and whether it affects oxygen levels in body tissues. It may help doctors better manage blood pressure during surgery to keep patients safe.
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 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.
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 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 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.
