Study Summary
This trial studies changes in heart function & blood flow after general anesthesia. It looks at the effects on those who experience low blood pressure afterwards.
Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults over 18 who need general anesthesia for surgery, with at least a 20-minute prep time before incision and normal blood pressure. It's not for those in emergency surgery, on anti-hypertensive or beta-blocker medications, or with a history of heart disease.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study uses echocardiography to observe how general anesthesia affects heart function and blood flow during surgery, especially when patients have low blood pressure after receiving anesthesia.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Since the intervention being studied is an observational technique (echocardiography), there are no direct side effects from it. However, risks may be associated with the underlying surgical procedure and use of anesthesia.
