“…Unfortunately, DP-SCI developed because the postoperative BP values fell significantly below these verified safe thresholds. Postoperative hypotension has been previously identified as a significant risk factor for DP-SCI, 8,11,22,27,28 with up to one They found a significant interindividual variability of such values, ranging from 48 to 110mm Hg, 6,19,29,30 with a higher requirement for those with severe and poorly controlled HTN. 6 Previous data 21,23,31 showed that poorly controlled HTN, a ratio of post operative BP /preoperative BP values of less than 1, and significant BP fluctuations increase the risk of DP-SCI.…”
