Effect of Intraoperative Arterial Hypotension on the Risk of Perioperative Stroke After Noncardiac Surgery: A Retrospective Multicenter Cohort Study

These findings emphasize the importance of perioperative cerebral blood flow autoregulation to prevent ischemic stroke.PMID:34252055 | DOI:10.1213/ANE.0000000000005604
