AI model aims to prevent dangerous blood pressure drops during surgery in seniors
NCT ID NCT07618416
First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study is developing a machine learning model to predict the risk of low blood pressure after anesthesia in elderly patients having non-cardiac surgery. Researchers will collect data from 500 participants aged 65 and older, including heart rate variability and other health details. The goal is to create a tool that helps doctors take preventive action, potentially reducing complications.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this could lead to a tool that helps doctors prevent dangerous drops in blood pressure during surgery in older patients.
- What could go wrong
- This is an observational study, not a treatment trial. The model may not be accurate enough for real-world use, and results may not apply to all patients.
This is an AI summary of the original study and may miss details. Read our disclaimer.

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.
Inclusion Criteria: * Aged over 65 years; * Scheduled for elective non-cardiac surgery; * American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) physical status classification I-III; * Planned for general anesthesia with endotracheal intubation; * Patient and legal guardians are capable of understanding the study protocol and willing to provide written informed consent. Exclusion Criteria: * Severe peripheral vascular diseases; * Secondary hypertension; * Presence of physical tremors (e.g., Parkinson's disease) preventing stable recording; * Inability to accurately measure upper limb blood pressure; * Pre-existing cardiac arrhythmias (e.g., atrial fibrillation) that render BRS; * Psychiatric disorders or cognitive impairments hindering basic cooperation.
