The current standard of care for perioperative blood pressure control often results in extreme spikes and dips in patient BP. Research indicates that blood pressure volatility often results in microtissue damage and increases in morbidity and mortality.
The Cause
Perioperative blood pressure control has remained relatively unchanged for decades. Clinicians use medication to control blood pressure with a ‘best guess’ dosage response to alarms and blood pressure extremes. This manual process lacks strict vigilance and is susceptible to mistakes and distractions.
The Solution
The AutoPress is a medical technology that will transform critical perioperative blood pressure control. The AutoPress regulates arterial blood pressure with an easy-to-use, low cost, solution that should decrease volatility thereby decreasing morbidity and mortality.
