The Hypotension Prediction Index (HPI), which uses a machine
learning algorithm to help predict intraoperative hypotension.
Regular listeners to www.topmedtalk.com will be familiar
with concerns about perioperative hypotension. For those who have
just joined us, or anyone who fancies a quick refresher on this
issue, it is covered in detail here:

Many practitioners believe they can predict hypotension by
observing trends in a patient's mean arterial blood pressure but
data shows the machine learning artificial intelligence used by HPI
delivers significantly better results.
