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.
male patient ≥18 years
scheduled for elective robot-assisted (Da Vinci) radical prostatectomy in steep Trendelenburg position
planned intraarterial blood pressure monitoring
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
