Intra-operative Permissive Hypotension

Yes. This was post op anesthesia resolution in a young "energetic" patient. At the time of initial surgery the operative field was dry before moving to the TICU. The patient received full resuscitation. And yes that is my question. Can we extend the true benefits of permissive hypotension to the OR and to the SICU?

if you were getting 100 ml/hr from one kidney at a SBP of 88, then I'd have  
been happy. With the detail that the bleeding restarted when the SBP bounced 
to  140 (due to pain, catecholamine release, over hydration?), I'd have been 
even  happier to see the SBP stay between 100-120. 
 
Did you figure out the reason for the post op hypertension? My first guess  
(from the timing as the anesthesia wore off) would be less than effective post  
op analgesia with resulting catecholamine release. Was there a  concomitant 
tachycardia?
