Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Incidences of postoperative hypotensive episodes identified by continuous non-invasive finger-cuff blood pressure monitoring. A postoperative hypotensive episode will be defined as a MAP <65 mmHg for at least one consecutive minute assessed by continuous non-invasive finger-cuff blood pressure monitoring.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Secondary endpoint #1: the cumulative duration patients had a MAP <65 mmHg (min) Secondary endpoint #2: the area under a MAP of 65 mmHg (mmHg x min) Secondary endpoint #3: the time-weighted average MAP less than 65 mmHg (mmHg) Exploratory endpoints: Primary and secondary endpoints below MAP thresholds of 70 mmHg and 80 mmHg
