About Controlled hypotension.

Controlled hypotension is not an organic disease or spontaneous pathological state, but an intraoperative anesthetic technique and clinical indication involving the deliberate, reversible reduction of systemic arterial blood pressure.

Primarily utilized during major surgical procedures—such as orthopedic, maxillofacial, neurosurgical, and endoscopic surgeries—it affects the cardiovascular system to minimize intraoperative blood loss and improve visualization within the operative field.

It is clinically defined by targeting a mean arterial pressure of 50 to 65 mm Hg or achieving a 20% to 30% reduction from a patient's baseline blood pressure, titrated carefully to maintain essential vital organ autoregulation and perfusion.
