Optimising perioperative management of hypotension: the challenges and evidence - Part 2
Speakers
Tuesday 10 June 2025 18:00 - 20:00 BST| 1pm-3pm EDT
This webinar, organised by the Association of Anaesthetists of Great Britain and Ireland (AAGBI), is aimed at anaesthetists, or professionals from related disciplines, at any level interested in the perioperative management of hypotension.
Peri-operative hypotension is a critical yet often under-recognised challenge in surgical care. This free two-part webinar brings together expert insights and the latest evidence to explore the causes, consequences, and cutting-edge strategies for managing hypotension before, during, and after surgery. Part two turns the spotlight on postoperative care, examining ward monitoring, early mobilisation, blood product use, and the special considerations in obstetric patients. Whether you’re in anaesthesia, perioperative medicine, or critical care, this webinar series offers practical guidance to enhance patient safety and outcomes across the surgical pathway.
Join us for a deep dive into perioperative hypotension
