Informed consent for anesthesia: survey of current practices in Japan.

abstract：BACKGROUND:During perioperative care, the continuous measurement of blood pressure (BP) provides superior physiological monitoring compared to intermittent techniques, especially for patients with comorbid conditions such as severe obesity. The current study prospectively assesses the accuracy of a continuous, noninvas...
