Brain monitor may guide safer blood pressure during surgery
NCT ID NCT05336864
First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study looks at whether low blood pressure during major noncardiac surgery harms organs like the heart and kidneys. Researchers are using a non-invasive brain monitor to see if a personalized blood pressure target can be set. 650 patients at cardiovascular risk are being observed to link blood pressure dips with complications.
