New device predicts blood pressure crashes in recovery room

NCT ID NCT07097454

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study tests a device called the Hypotension Prediction Index (HPI) that warns doctors when a patient's blood pressure is about to drop dangerously low after surgery. 210 adults having elective surgery under general anesthesia will be randomly assigned to either standard monitoring or HPI-guided care. The goal is to see if using the HPI can prevent low blood pressure episodes in the recovery room.
