A Study of Changes in Heart Function and Blood Flow in People Receiving Anesthesia
- Conditions
- Anesthesia
- Interventions
- Diagnostic Test: Echocardiography
- Registration Number
- NCT05954832
- Lead Sponsor
- Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center
- Brief Summary
The purpose of this study is to understand changes in heart function (how the heart pumps blood) and blood flow in people who receive general anesthesia during surgery. The researchers are particularly interested in the heart function and blood flow changes in people who experience low blood pressure (hypotension) after receiving anesthesia.

Group Intervention Description Echocardiography Echocardiography Patients participating in this study will undergo routine anesthetic and perioperative care with the addition of an echocardiography and Clearsight BP measurement.
- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method The proportion of patients with post-induction hypotension (PIH) up to 20-mins after anesthesia induction. summarize the distributions of the echocardiography parameter values (pre-load LVEDd(cm), after-load LVEDs(cm), other measures \[e.g., contractility (EF %) and structural abnormalities\]) across each timepoint among patients with and without PIH
