Mean Arterial Pressure (MAP) [ Time Frame: intra-operative ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
Alert will prompt staff to offer quicker hemodynamic support and increase of Mean Arterial Pressure (MAP).

A Randomized Effectiveness Trial of Early Hemodynamic Support in Patients Demonstrating a "Triple Low" of Mean-arterial Pressure, End-tidal Anesthetic Concentration, and Bispectral Index

The investigators propose to test the theory that smart alarms for the Triple Low State incorporated into a decision support system built into an electronic anesthesia record will prompt clinicians to intervene earlier in situations that would otherwise provoke little concern, and that the alert system will reduce 90-day mortality. Specifically, the investigators will test the hypothesis that providing Triple Low alerts reduces 90-day mortality. Secondary outcomes will be the fraction of alerts that generate early clinician responses and the consequent increase in MAP.

Probability Sample

adults presenting for non-cardiac surgery under volatile general anesthesia

  • Low Bispectral Index
  • Low Mean Arterial Blood Pressure
  • Low End-tidal Anesthetic Concentration
Not Provided
  • decision-support alerts
    The combination of low MAC, low MAP, and low BIS is thus a "Triple Low", which will set alerts by the Decision-Support System (DSS) .
