A new international perioperative quality initiative (POQI) consensus statement written by global experts and published in the British Journal of Anesthesia has reaffirmed the risks of hypotension and the importance of maintenance of mean arterial pressure.
Of specific interest, this group of experts discussed closed-loop administration of vasopressor in the statement as a promising treatment strategy and cited three of the inventors' studies on which Perceptive Medical's technology is directly based (the feasibility study, the first randomized study and the systolic pressure control study), recommending further investigation in larger trials.
We're encouraged seeing this approach receive recognition from this group of experts and published in such a prestigious anesthesia journal, and are working hard to bring it to the next phase of clinical evolution through a larger trial.
