Conditions

Intraoperative Hypotension

Brief summary

The PROST-BP trial is a prospective, single-center, randomized, patient-blinded, non-inferiority trial investigating whether intermittent oscillometric blood pressure monitoring is non-inferior to continuous intraarterial blood pressure monitoring in reducing intraoperative hypotension in patients having robot-assisted radical prostatectomy.

Interventions

OTHEROscillometric blood pressure monitoring

In patients assigned to oscillometric blood pressure monitoring, clinicians will be blinded to intraarterial blood pressure monitoring and intraoperative blood pressure will be managed based on oscillometric blood pressure monitoring at 2.5-minute intervals.

OTHERIntraarterial blood pressure monitoring

In patients assigned to intraarterial blood pressure monitoring, intraoperative blood pressure will be managed based on intraarterial blood pressure monitoring per institutional routine.
