Filter by:The study will investigate whether the use of Goal Directed Hemodynamic Therapy implemented with the HPI algorithm using a treatment algorithm will reduce the incidence of hypotension and improve treatment of hypotension.
Controlled hypotension application is a commonly preferred anesthesia practice during surgical procedures, particularly in regions with rich tissue perfusion, aiming to reduce bleeding, enhance surgical field visibility, and mitigate potential complications. Preserving blood flow, especially to the brain, heart, and kidneys, is vital during this method. Previous studies on the subject have primarily focused on short-term effects regarding cognitive impairments, with limited research on the long-term impacts. In our study, we aim to investigate how controlled hypotension application, administered to patients undergoing rhinoplasty or septoplasty surgery, specifically affects cerebral blood flow and its potential consequences on the development of short-term/medium-term/long-term cognitive impairments or delirium in the postoperative period.
The beach chair position is the most commonly used position during shoulder surgery and offers the surgeon numerous advantages over the lateral decubitus position. However, the beach chair position can also lead to hemodynamic changes, including hypotension and cerebral hypoperfusion. It is therefore the anesthesiologist's job to prevent hypotension during the procedure. The Acumen Hypotension Predictor Index or HPI for short is a software program that can predict the occurrence of low blood pressure during surgery shortly before it occurs. Studies have already demonstrated the effectiveness of HPI in various operations, where hypotension is defined as a mean arterial blood pressure < 65mmHg for at least 1 minute. To our knowledge, the low blood pressure prediction index has not yet been investigated for the prevention of low blood pressure in shoulder surgery in the beach chair position. The HPI is built into a monitor that is switched on in addition to the standard monitoring for monitoring blood pressure, pulse, saturation, among other things. The monitor gives a signal when an episode of low blood pressure will occur within 15 minutes. This gives the anesthesiologist the opportunity to anticipate in time so that the occurrence of low blood pressure can be avoided. Goal The aim of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of the HPI in predicting and reducing the incidence of hypotension during shoulder surgery in the beach chair position. Procedure A total of 144 patients will participate in this study. Patients will be randomized to the intervention group or the control group according to a 1:1 allocation. In addition to standard monitoring, the HPI monitor will be turned on for all patients. For patients in the control group, the HPI monitor screen will be blinded and the alarms muted. Patients between 18 and 85 years of age with a BMI ≤ 40 kg/m2 undergoing elective shoulder surgery are eligible for the study.
Adequate free flap perfusion during Deep Inferior Epigastric Perforator (DIEP) flap breast reconstruction surgery requires maintaining blood pressure above 100 mmHg and avoiding excessive fluid administration. This study aims to determine whether the use of a measurement of preload dependency (Pulse Pressure Variation = PPV), can guide fluid therapy and if it decreases the risk of flap oedema. For this purpose, two fluid management strategies will be compared: - Static intraoperative fluid management: Administration of crystalloid fluids is limited to 5ml/kg/h - Dynamic intraoperative fluid management: Crystalloid fluids are only administered if PPV exceeds 12% The purpose of this study is to compare the static and dynamic (= targeted) fluid strategy and to evaluate the effect on flap oedema and flap perfusion.
Around 300 million surgical operations are performed globally, and of these, 40 to 50 million are performed in the USA. The perioperative period is characterized by hemodynamic instability and, most importantly, hypotension. Intraoperative hypotension is frequent, and the incidence ranges between 5% and 99% during non-cardiac surgery, depending on the definition. The aim of the study is determined as the relationship between two different time intervals of measurements and time spent hypotensive under harm thresholds in non-cardiac surgery in adults having non-cardiac surgery. Secondarily, it will be determined if more frequent non-invasive blood pressure measurement use decreases postoperative acute kidney injury. Exploratory, it will be evaluated if more frequent non-invasive blood pressure use causes pain or nerve injury in the arms or not.
HPI monitoring and the adoption of therapeutic interventions before hypotension occurs should be ensure a shorter time of intra-operative hypotension (MAP < 65 mmHg) during deceased-donor kidney transplant surgery. The control group is represented by patients undergoing the same surgical procedure with hemodynamic monitoring with invasive blood pressure monitoring which represents the gold standard for this surgery. HPI monitoring has not yet been investigated during this surgery.
