Is hypotensive anaesthesia guided by invasive intraarterial monitoring required for orthognathic surgery ? & #8211; A retrospective review of anaesthetic practice and intraoperative blood loss in orthognathic surgery in a tertiary hospital

Conclusion: Invasive blood pressure monitoring is as effective as noninvasive methods to achieve hypotensive anaesthesia. It does not aid in achieving lower target blood pressure. There is a lack of association between a reduction in blood loss and higher blood transfusion during hypotensive anaesthesia and this will require further evaluation.
