About this study

Official title: Hypotension Prediction Index in Postoperative Surgical Patients in the Post-anesthetic Recovery Room - a Feasibility Study

PACU-HPI study evaluates the use of a hemodynamic monitor in the post-anesthetic recovery room on patients undergoing colorectal, hepatobiliary, and vascular surgery, to determine the feasibility of recruiting this surgical population.

Read the detailed description

Postoperative vascular complications, including myocardial infarction (MI), myocardial injury after noncardiac surgery (MINS), stroke, and death occur in up to 18% of surgical patients.1 Hypotension is a frequent occurrence in the postoperative period and can increase the risk of postoperative vascular complications.2 Therefore, accurate prediction of postoperative hypotension can identify patients at risk for postoperative vascular complications who would benefit from early intervention. The investigators propose a feasibility study to determine the accuracy of the hypotension prediction index (HPI) parameter of the HemoSphere monitor and Acumen IQ sensor (Edwards Lifesciences, Irvine, CA) to predict postoperative hypotension in surgical patients.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Incidence of intraoperative hypotension

    Describe the incidence of hypotension defined as MAP <65 intraoperatively.

    Measured: in 12 months

  2. Incidence of postoperative hypotension

    Describe the incidence of postoperative hypotension defined as MAP <65 in the PACU

    Measured: in 12 months

  3. Hemodynamic changes with treatment of hypotension

    Described the changes in cardiac index with each medical treatment of a hypotensive episode.

    Measured: in 12 months

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Sensitivity and Specificity of HPI

    Sensitivity and Specificity of HPI compared to a hypotensive events in the postoperative setting

    Measured: in 12 months

  2. Cardiovascular outcomes

    Number of patients with Mortality, MI, MINS, acute pulmonary edema, stroke, pulmonary embolism, deep vein thrombosis

    Measured: in 12 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Surgery, run by Sir Mortimer B. Davis - Jewish General Hospital at 1 site in Canada.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 5 inclusion and 3 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: looking for participants now, as of the sponsor's last update on 18 May 2025. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Canada. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Stephen Yang, MD, MSc ((514) 340-8222, stephen.yang@mail.mcgill.ca), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Incidence of intraoperative hypotension (time frame: in 12 months). The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 18 May 2025.
