Brief summary

Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.

Across broad surgical populations, cerebral hypoperfusion is associated with increased mortality, stroke, brain cellular injury, and poor functional outcomes. Based on available evidence, The Brain Trauma Foundation recommends that cerebral perfusion pressure (CPP) be maintained greater than 60 mmHg in high-risk settings to minimize risk of cerebral ischemia. Though several lines of investigation have focused on optimal cerebrovascular management in the intensive care unit and cardiac surgery settings, much less focus has been placed on cerebrovascular management during non-cardiac surgery. Preliminary data indicate that intraoperative CPP routinely falls below 60 mmHg in neurosurgical and trauma surgery settings, though the relationship between reduced intraoperative CPP and outcomes remains unclear. Furthermore, effective methods by which low intraoperative CPP could be prevented have not been thoroughly investigated, which represents the first required step prior to studying the relationship between intraoperative CPP and clinical outcomes. Thus, the aim of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of an automated algorithm that alerts clinicians to a decrease in CPP below 60 mmHg. This study tests the hypothesis that an automated pager alert system (triggered by CPP falling below 60 mmHg) will increase intraoperative CPP compared to standard of care.
