PeriOperative Quality Initiative (POQI) international consensus statement on perioperative arterial pressure management

Keep intraoperative MAP ≥60 mm Hg in at-risk patients

Increase MAP targets when venous or compartment pressures are elevated

Treat hypotension based on presumed underlying causes

When intraoperative hypertension is treated, do so carefully to avoid hypotension

Consider continuous intraoperative arterial pressure monitoring; it can help reduce severity and duration of hypotension vs intermittent monitoring

Postoperative hypotension is often unrecognised and might be more important than intraoperative hypotension because it is often prolonged and untreated
