Details and patient eligibility

About

This is a randomized trial (1) investigating whether continuous non-invasive finger-cuff blood pressure monitoring reduces the area under a mean arterial pressure (MAP) of 65 mmHg within the first 15 minutes of anesthetic induction compared to intermittent blood pressure monitoring using upper-arm cuff oscillometry in patients having non-cardiac surgery; and (2) investigating whether continuous non-invasive finger-cuff blood pressure monitoring reduces the time-weighted average for MAP <65 mmHg during the intraoperative period compared to intermittent blood pressure monitoring using upper-arm cuff oscillometry in patients having non-cardiac surgery.
