Can pulse wave velocity measured preoperatively predict hypotension in hypertensive patients during anesthesia induction?

BACKGROUND: During the induction of general anesthesia, hemodynamic instability is a common occurrence in elderly hypertensive patients with increased arterial stiffness, which can cause undesirable complications. Pulse wave velocity (PWV) is an important indicator of arterial stiffness. OBJECTIVES:...
