Why the study?
Intraoperative hypotension causes significant perioperative complications, but current management remains reactive despite advanced hemodynamic monitoring and goal-directed therapy protocols.

HPI may enable proactive management of intraoperative hypotension; leaves open whether adoption reduces complications in routine care.
Does the Hypotension Prediction Index (HPI) algorithm reduce the incidence of intraoperative hypotension in patients undergoing general anesthesia?
While the Hypotension Prediction Index (HPI) shows promise in reducing intraoperative hypotension, current evidence is of very low quality and requires further outcome-based studies.
