AbstractOverall, there are numerous causes of hypotension in the perioperative period. The approach to definitive treatment must be tailored to the child's unique anatomy and physiology, as well as the current factors presumed to be eliciting the hypotensive state. It is imperative to consider both routine and lesion-specific etiologies to the current hypotensive episode. Lastly, when employing pharmacologic therapy for hypotension, there are often multiple combinations of medications that can reasonably be used to achieve the desired hemodynamic effects.© 2019 John Wiley & Sons Ltd.
