Why the study?
Intraoperative hypotension is common and associated with increased morbidity and mortality, but whether the Hypotension Prediction Index reduces hypotensive events in non-cardiac surgery patients remained to be tested.
Does the Hypotension Prediction Index reduce the incidence and duration of intraoperative hypotension in non-cardiac surgery patients?
Population
136 matched non-cardiac surgery patients selected from 769 patients
Comparison
HPI application vs non-HPI group
Design
Single-center propensity-score-matched study

HPI use was associated with less hypotension; hypothesis-generating and requires RCTs before practice change.
Does the Hypotension Prediction Index reduce the incidence and duration of intraoperative hypotension in non-cardiac surgery patients?
The use of the Hypotension Prediction Index during non-cardiac surgery significantly reduces the time-weighted average of intraoperative hypotension, particularly in higher-risk patients.
