Blood pressure management help during spine surgery
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study tests a software tool that helps doctors automatically adjust norepinephrine (a blood pressure medicine) during long spine surgeries. The goal is to keep your blood pressure stable, which may reduce complications.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be 22 years of age or older.
- You (or your legal representative) must sign a consent form to join.
- During surgery, you will need a small tube placed in a vein (central, PICC, or peripheral) to receive norepinephrine, a medicine that helps raise low blood pressure.
- Your blood pressure will be closely monitored with a small tube in an artery (arterial line).
- You must be having spine surgery that involves multiple levels and is expected to last between 2 and 8 hours.
- You cannot have a history of irregular heartbeats, be pregnant or nursing, or be participating in another interventional study.

This study compares two medications used to manage blood pressure during complex spine surgery. The goal is to see which one works better and is safer for patients undergoing this type of procedure.
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 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 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 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 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.
