About this trial
The study will enroll patients scheduled for PPGL removal surgery at Peking Union Medical College Hospital. Before surgery, researchers will use a 6-variable model to predict the patient's risk of experiencing severe blood pressure swings during the operation. During surgery, a real-time early warning tool will be tested for its ability to accurately predict blood pressure changes 60 seconds in advance. The study will also explore the value of continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) in understanding blood pressure fluctuations and evaluate the performance of an artificial intelligence (AI) agent for preoperative anesthesia assessment, comparing its accuracy, consistency, and efficiency against that of human anesthesiologists.
Participation involves no changes to the patient's standard surgical or medical care. It includes collecting clinical data, wearing a CGM sensor from the day before to the day after surgery, and having the preoperative assessment performed by both the AI agent and anesthesiologists.

Trial outcomes
Primary outcomes
Predictive Model Discrimination (AUROC)
Discriminative ability of the preoperative 6-variable model for predicting severe intraoperative hemodynamic instability (HDI) subtype, assessed by the Area Under the Receiver Operating Characteristic Curve (AUROC).
Secondary outcomes
Real-time Warning Tool Accuracy - Heart Rate (MAPE)
Accuracy of the intraoperative early warning tool for heart rate, measured by the Mean Absolute Percentage Error (MAPE) between its predicted and actual monitored heart rate values. Unit of Measure: %
Real-time Warning Tool Accuracy - Systolic Blood Pressure (MAPE)
Accuracy of the intraoperative early warning tool for blood pressure parameters, measured by the Mean Absolute Percentage Error (MAPE) between its predicted and actual monitored values for systolic blood pressure (SBP). Unit of Measure: %
Real-time Warning Tool Accuracy - Diastolic Blood Pressure (MAPE)
Accuracy of the intraoperative early warning tool for blood pressure parameters, measured by the Mean Absolute Percentage Error (MAPE) between its predicted and actual monitored values for diastolic blood pressure (DBP). Unit of Measure: %
Predictive Model Calibration
Calibration of the preoperative 6-variable predictive model, assessed by the Hosmer-Lemeshow goodness-of-fit test (p-value), calibration curve, and Brier score. Unit of Measure: p-value (dimensionless), Brier score (dimensionless)
