About this trial

The purpose of this study is to evaluate an alternative way of continuously measuring blood pressure in patients coming for complex surgery. The investigators will directly compare the speed of set up and accuracy of the new ClearSight monitor to those taken by the arterial line monitor, which is the current gold standard for recording blood pressure measurements.

Eligibility criteria

This trial does not accept healthy volunteers

Qualifiers

written informed consent

undergoing elective cardiac surgery OR elective neurointerventional surgery (with standard arterial radial line for continuous blood pressure monitoring)

Disqualifiers

undergoing emergent cardiac surgery OR emergent neurointerventional surgery

Trial population

These participants are receiving either elective cardiac surgery or elective neurointerventional surgery at the Royal University Hospital, Saskatoon.

Time perspective

Treatments tested in this trial

  • ClearSight System

    Device

    Patients having either elective cardiac surgery or elective neurointerventional surgery will have blood pressure monitored by the ClearSight device, along with the standard of care radial arterial line, throughout their surgery. The arterial line will be placed on the radial artery contralateral to the upper arm blood pressure cuff. The ClearSight device will then be placed on the third finger of the hand ipsilateral to the radial arterial line.

Treatment groups

62 Participants
are divided into 2 treatment groups
Group A: Elective Cardiac Surgery Patients1 intervention
Group B: Elective Neurointerventional Surgery Patients1 intervention

Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

systolic blood pressure (SBP), diastolic blood pressure (DBP) and mean arterial pressure (MAP)

Time frame
duration of surgery

Secondary outcomes

1

time to place instrument

compare time to place the radial arterial line, and ClearSight finger cuff and wrist strap

Time frame
before surgery
