Impact of clinicians' behavior, an educational intervention with mandated blood pressure and the hypotension prediction index software on intraoperative hypotension: a mixed methods study.

ABSTRACT:

Purpose

Intraoperative hypotension (IOH) is associated with adverse outcomes. We therefore explored beliefs regarding IOH and barriers to its treatment. Secondarily, we assessed if an educational intervention and mandated mean arterial pressure (MAP), or the implementation of the Hypotension Prediction Index-software (HPI) were associated with a reduction in IOH.

Methods

Structured interviews (n = 27) and questionnaires (n = 84) were conducted to explore clinicians' beliefs and barriers to IOH treatment, in addition to usefulness of HPI questionnaires (n = 14). 150 elective major surgical patients who required invasive blood pressure monitoring were included in three cohorts to assess incidence and time-weighted average (TWA) of hypotension (MAP < 65 mmHg). Cohort one received standard care (baseline), the clinicians of cohort two had a training on hypotension and a mandated MAP > 65 mmHg, and patients of the third cohort received protocolized care using the HPI.

Results

Clinicians felt challenged to manage IOH in some patients, yet they reported sufficient knowledge and skills. HPI-software was considered useful and beneficial. No difference was found in incidence of IOH between cohorts. TWA was comparable between baseline and education cohort (0.15 mmHg [0.05-0.41] vs. 0.11 mmHg [0.02-0.37]), but was significantly lower in the HPI cohort (0.04 mmHg [0.00 to 0.11], p < 0.05 compared to both).

Conclusions

Clinicians believed they had sufficient knowledge and skills, which could explain why no difference was found after the educational intervention. In the HPI cohort, IOH was significantly reduced compared to baseline, therefore HPI-software may help prevent IOH.

Project description:Background: Intraoperative hypotension is common in patients having non-cardiac surgery and associated with postoperative acute myocardial injury, acute kidney injury, and mortality. Avoiding intraoperative hypotension is a complex task for anesthesiologists. Using artificial intelligence to predict hypotension from clinical and hemodynamic data is an innovative and intriguing approach. The AcumenTM Hypotension Prediction Index (HPI) software (Edwards Lifesciences; Irvine, CA, USA) was developed using artificial intelligence—specifically machine learning—and predicts hypotension from blood pressure waveform features. We aimed to describe the incidence, duration, severity, and causes of intraoperative hypotension when using HPI monitoring in patients having elective major non-cardiac surgery. Methods: We built up a European, multicenter, prospective, observational registry including at least 700 evaluable patients from five European countries. The registry includes consenting adults (≥18 years) who were scheduled for elective major non-cardiac surgery under general anesthesia that was expected to last at least 120 min and in whom arterial catheter placement and HPI monitoring was planned. The major objectives are to quantify and characterize intraoperative hypotension (defined as a mean arterial pressure [MAP] < 65 mmHg) when using HPI monitoring. This includes the time-weighted average (TWA) MAP < 65 mmHg, area under a MAP of 65 mmHg, the number of episodes of a MAP < 65 mmHg, the proportion of patients with at least one episode (1 min or more) of a MAP < 65 mmHg, and the absolute maximum decrease below a MAP of 65 mmHg. In addition, we will assess causes of intraoperative hypotension and investigate associations between intraoperative hypotension and postoperative outcomes. Discussion: There are only sparse data on the effect of using HPI monitoring on intraoperative hypotension in patients having elective major non-cardiac surgery. Therefore, we built up a European, multicenter, prospective, observational registry to describe the incidence, duration, severity, and causes of intraoperative hypotension when using HPI monitoring in patients having elective major non-cardiac surgery.

Project description:BackgroundPostoperative hypotension is associated with adverse outcomes, but intraoperative prediction of postanaesthesia care unit (PACU) hypotension is not routine in anaesthesiology workflow. Although machine learning models may support clinician prediction of PACU hypotension, clinician acceptance of prediction models is poorly understood.MethodsWe developed a clinically informed gradient boosting machine learning model using preoperative and intraoperative data from 88 446 surgical patients from 2015 to 2019. Nine anaesthesiologists each made 192 predictions of PACU hypotension using a web-based visualisation tool with and without input from the machine learning model. Questionnaires and interviews were analysed using thematic content analysis for model acceptance by anaesthesiologists.ResultsThe model predicted PACU hypotension in 17 029 patients (area under the receiver operating characteristic [AUROC] 0.82 [95% confidence interval {CI}: 0.81-0.83] and average precision 0.40 [95% CI: 0.38-0.42]). On a random representative subset of 192 cases, anaesthesiologist performance improved from AUROC 0.67 (95% CI: 0.60-0.73) to AUROC 0.74 (95% CI: 0.68-0.79) with model predictions and information on risk factors. Anaesthesiologists perceived more value and expressed trust in the prediction model for prospective planning, informing PACU handoffs, and drawing attention to unexpected cases of PACU hypotension, but they doubted the model when predictions and associated features were not aligned with clinical judgement. Anaesthesiologists expressed interest in patient-specific thresholds for defining and treating postoperative hypotension.ConclusionsThe ability of anaesthesiologists to predict PACU hypotension was improved by exposure to machine learning model predictions. Clinicians acknowledged value and trust in machine learning technology. Increasing familiarity with clinical use of model predictions is needed for effective integration into perioperative workflows.
