About this study
Official title: Prospective Validation of Intraoperative Blood Pressure Monitors: the Influence of Site and Execution Strategy. The PROMISES Trial
This observational study aims to identify the incidence and importance of discrepancies between measurements of intraoperative invasive and noninvasive blood pressure monitoring in patients undergoing non-cardiac surgeries under general anesthesia . The main questions it aims to answer are :
- The importance of the differences, in mmHg, between the non-invasive and invasive blood pressure measurements (NIBP-IBP) on systolic, diastolic and mean arterial pressure.
- Identify the predictive factors associated with these differences.
Read the detailed description
The monitoring of arterial blood pressure, invasively or noninvasively, is a requirement for perioperative hemodynamic and anesthesia management to optimize the administration of fluids and vasopressors. Numerous trials have highlighted the consequences of intraoperative blood pressure variability regarding the risk of serious complications and postoperative mortality associated with organ ischemia, and bleeding. Precisely, intraoperative hypotension (MAP <65 mm Hg) has been associated with cardiac complications as well as acute kidney injury. While no optimal intraoperative blood pressure targets has been established to minimize perioperative complications, a recent comprehensive literature review established recommended mean arterial pressure (MAP), and blood pressure (BP) targets within 100% to 120% of BP baseline with MAP ≥60 mm Hg if the patient presented low baseline (systolic BP <90 mm Hg or diastolic BP <50 mm Hg), and MAP within 90% to 110% BP baseline and ≈65 to 95 mm Hg for normal baseline (systolic BP 90-129 mm Hg and diastolic BP 50-79 mm Hg) patients.
Invasive blood pressure monitoring by arterial catheterization is the gold standard in intraoperative hemodynamic management. While providing continuous blood pressure readings allowing for dynamic and constant monitoring, clinically relevant transducer inaccuracies have been documented, present in up to 30% of patients. Within patients of the same study, comparison of invasive and noninvasive blood pressure demonstrated considerable overestimation of systolic blood pressure and underestimation of diastolic blood pressure.
Oscillometric blood pressure monitoring is noninvasive, quick, and effortless.Despite its convenience, the oscillometric monitoring of blood pressure does not allow for continuous blood pressure measurement, possibly delaying or missing the recognition of hypotensive episodes. Moreover, oscillometric devices can tend to inaccurately measure blood pressure in comparison to invasive monitoring methods. In intraoperative and critical care settings, studies have shown oscillometric devices' tendencies to overestimate low blood pressure, failing to accurately detect hypotensive episodes, thus demonstrating the superiority of invasive monitoring methods.
The discrepancies between invasive and noninvasive methods of blood pressure monitoring have been described in prior studies. It has been determined that noninvasive blood pressure tended to be greater than invasive blood pressure in 56.1% of systolic measurements, and 67.3% of diastolic measurements for the same patient. Furthermore, noninvasive blood pressure readings tend to overestimate mean arterial pressure for low blood pressure values, and to underestimate mean arterial pressure for high blood pressure values.
Considering the consequences associated with even short intraoperative hypotensive episodes, the discrepancies between noninvasive and invasive blood pressure monitoring are not negligible. Currently, little is known about the relation between these discrepancies and contextual elements linked to the patient or the surgery.
Therefore, this prospective observational trial aims to identify the incidence of gradients between intraoperative noninvasive and invasive blood pressure monitoring and extract key relationships between the occurrence of these gradients and the patient's comorbidity profile, the monitor's parameters and artifacts, and the perioperative chronology.

Evaluate the relation between the healthcare provider's confidence in the arterial line and the presence and importance of NIBP-IBP discrepancies. Confidence will be assessed at 30 minute intervals during the surgery by offering multiple choices for confidence ranking. Confidence scale will be as follows: 0= no trust in radial line, 1= weak trust in radial line, 2= moderate trust in radial line, 3=strong trust in radial line, 4= absolute trust in radial line

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
An observational study of Anesthesia and Blood Pressure, run by Ciusss de L'Est de l'Île de Montréal 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 2 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 25 Jul 2024. 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?
Results are not available in the source record.
How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?
Contact Pascal Laferrière-Langlois (+1-819-432-5847, pascal.laferriere-langlois@umontreal.ca), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
Difference between non-invasive blood pressure (NIBP) and invasive blood pressure (IBP) measurements (time frame: Time Frame: from arrival in preoperative unit patient's departure from PACU and/or removal of IBP device, expected duration approximately between 2 and 8 hours). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
Where can I read the original study information?
On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT06518980, which also lists 22 linked publications.
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 25 Jul 2024; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 7 Nov 2026.
