Abstract
Induced hypotension is used to provide for a dry operative field and to reduce blood loss. Especially for cerebral aneurysm surgery hypotension is often required because it additionally reduces the risk of premature aneurysm rupture during clipping. However at the moment its benefit is discussed controversially.
