Trial summary

The beach chair position is the most commonly used position during shoulder surgery and offers the surgeon numerous advantages over the lateral decubitus position. However, the beach chair position can also lead to hemodynamic changes, including hypotension and cerebral hypoperfusion. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Effect of the Hypotension Prediction Index on the Prevalence of Intra-operative Hypotension During Shoulder Surgery in Beach Chair: A Prospective Randomized Clinical Trial.

The beach chair position is the most commonly used position during shoulder surgery and offers the surgeon numerous advantages over the lateral decubitus position. However, the beach chair position can also lead to hemodynamic changes, including hypotension and cerebral hypoperfusion. It is therefore the anesthesiologist's job to prevent hypotension during the procedure.

The Acumen Hypotension Predictor Index or HPI for short is a software program that can predict the occurrence of low blood pressure during surgery shortly before it occurs. Studies have already demonstrated the effectiveness of HPI in various operations, where hypotension is defined as a mean arterial blood pressure < 65mmHg for at least 1 minute. To our knowledge, the low blood pressure prediction index has not yet been investigated for the prevention of low blood pressure in shoulder surgery in the beach chair position.

The HPI is built into a monitor that is switched on in addition to the standard monitoring for monitoring blood pressure, pulse, saturation, among other things. The monitor gives a signal when an episode of low blood pressure will occur within 15 minutes. This gives the anesthesiologist the opportunity to anticipate in time so that the occurrence of low blood pressure can be avoided.

Goal The aim of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of the HPI in predicting and reducing the incidence of hypotension during shoulder surgery in the beach chair position.

Procedure A total of 144 patients will participate in this study. Patients will be randomized to the intervention group or the control group according to a 1:1 allocation. In addition to standard monitoring, the HPI monitor will be turned on for all patients. For patients in the control group, the HPI monitor screen will be blinded and the alarms muted.

Patients between 18 and 85 years of age with a BMI ≤ 40 kg/m2 undergoing elective shoulder surgery are eligible for the study.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

    In the unblinded HPI group (the intervention group), the arterial waveform and pressure will be displayed on the anesthesia monitor and the HPI on the Hemosphere monitor of Edwards Lifesciences (the study monitor).

What is being measured

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

  1. Time-weighted average MAP< than 65 mmHg

    Calculated as depth of hypotension below a MAP of 65 mmHg x time spent below a MAP of 65 mmHg (in minutes) divided by total duration of anesthesia (in minutes))

    Measured: during surgery

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Acumen Hypotension prediction Index software in people with Hypotension During Surgery, run by Geertrui Dewinter at 1 site in Belgium.

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 7 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 7 Nov 2023. 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 Belgium. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Each site lists its own contact: choose the nearest one under Trial locations. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Time-weighted average MAP< than 65 mmHg (time frame: during surgery). 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 7 Nov 2023.
