Official title
Oscillometric Versus Intraarterial Blood Pressure Monitoring to Reduce Intraoperative Hypotension During Robot-Assisted Prostatectomy: A Non-Inferiority Randomized Trial
Overview
The PROST-BP trial is a prospective, single-center, randomized, patient-blinded, non-inferiority trial investigating whether intermittent oscillometric blood pressure monitoring is non-inferior to continuous intraarterial blood pressure monitoring in reducing intraoperative hypotension in patients having robot-assisted radical prostatectomy.
Interventions
- Other Oscillometric blood pressure monitoring
In patients assigned to oscillometric blood pressure monitoring, clinicians will be blinded to intraarterial blood pressure monitoring and intraoperative blood pressure will be managed based on oscillometric blood pressure monitoring at 2.5-minute intervals. - Other Intraarterial blood pressure monitoring
In patients assigned to intraarterial blood pressure monitoring, intraoperative blood pressure will be managed based on intraarterial blood pressure monitoring per institutional routine.
Primary outcome measures
- Time-weighted average MAP <65 mmHg [Time frame: From the start of surgery until the end of surgery]
Secondary outcome measures (7)
- Area under a MAP <65 mmHg [Time frame: From the start of surgery until the end of surgery]
- Total duration of MAP <65 mmHg [Time frame: From the start of surgery until the end of surgery]
- Number of discrete hypotensive episodes [Time frame: From the start of surgery until the end of surgery]
- Area above a MAP >100 mmHg [Time frame: From the start of surgery until the end of surgery]
- Time-weighted average MAP >100 mmHg [Time frame: From the start of surgery until the end of surgery]
- Average norepinephrine infusion rate [Time frame: From the start of surgery until the end of surgery]
- Total volume of administered crystalloids [Time frame: From the start of surgery until the end of surgery]
Eligibility criteria
Inclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria
- patients in whom the attending anesthesiologist considers intraarterial blood pressure monitoring to be mandatory for clinical reasons
- patients participating in another interventional trial likely to influence intraoperative blood pressure management
