ABSTRACT: Introduction
Hypotension is common during cardiac surgery and often persists postoperatively in the intensive care unit (ICU). Still, treatment is mainly reactive, causing a delay in its management. The Hypotension Prediction Index (HPI) can predict hypotension with high accuracy. Using the HPI combined with a guidance protocol resulted in a significant reduction in the severity of hypotension in four non-cardiac surgery trials. This randomised trial aims to evaluate the effectiveness of the HPI in combination with a diagnostic guidance protocol on reducing the occurrence and severity of hypotension during coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) surgery and subsequent ICU admission.Methods and analysis
