Preoperative patient risk factors for intraoperative hypotension: a systematic review and meta-analysis.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Intraoperative hypotension (IOH) presents a risk factor for postoperative organ dysfunction. However, as a unique definition of IOH is still missing, the influence of individual preoperative patient characteristics on IOH remains poorly understood. This systematic review aimed to examine the variability in IOH definitions and to identify preoperative risk factors associated with IOH.

Methods

A systematic literature search was conducted from inception to March 2, 2024. Studies reporting on IOH and from which the association between preoperative characteristics and IOH in cardiac and non-cardiac surgery could be derived were included. Odds ratios (ORs) were either extracted directly or calculated based on available patient-level data. Pooled estimates were generated
