Why the study?
Does an integrated dynamic physiologic management strategy reduce cardiopulmonary complications in high-risk cardiovascular patients undergoing painless gastrointestinal endoscopy compared to static risk assessment?
Does an integrated dynamic physiologic management strategy reduce cardiopulmonary complications in high-risk cardiovascular patients undergoing painless gastrointestinal endoscopy compared to static risk assessment?
An integrated, physiology-based dynamic management approach is essential to mitigate the high risk of cardiopulmonary complications in patients with cardiovascular disease undergoing gastrointestinal endoscopy.
May support integrated protocols in high-risk GI endoscopy; leaves open prospective RCTs to confirm benefit.
= 0.107 mg/kg in Child-Pugh B cirrhosis). Third, precision intraoperative monitoring, including invasive arterial pressure, stroke volume variation, and capnography, enables early identification and targeted management of hypotension and hypoxemia. Finally, physiology-based discharge criteria emphasizing hemodynamic stability, respiratory adequacy, and neurologic recovery reduce delayed complications and unplanned readmissions. Transitioning from static preprocedural assessment to dynamic physiologic management substantially enhances perioperative safety in high-risk cardiovascular patients undergoing PGE. Integrating predictive risk models, tailored pharmacology, advanced monitoring, and physiology-based discharge protocols is associated with meaningful reductions in cardiopulmonary complications. Future randomized trials are needed to validate pharmacogenomic-guided dosing and closed-loop sedation systems, but maintaining hemodynamic stability (mean arterial pressure ≥ 65 mmHg) remains a central priority for improving outcomes in this vulnerable population.
