Background Delirium poses significant risks to patients, but countermeasures can be taken to mitigate negative outcomes. Accurately forecasting delirium in intensive care unit (ICU) patients could guide proactive intervention. Our primary objective was to predict ICU delirium by applying machine learning to clinical […]

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the antiallodynic effective dose in 50% of the sample (ED50) and dorsal root ganglion (DRG) protein modulation of a peripheral direct adenosine monophosphate kinase […]
Read MoreAuthors: Heder J. de Vries, M.D. et al Anesthesiology March 2023, Vol. 138, 274–288. Background Monitoring and controlling lung stress and diaphragm effort has been hypothesized to limit lung injury and diaphragm injury. The occluded inspiratory airway pressure (Pocc) and the airway occlusion pressure at 100 ms (P0.1) have been used as noninvasive methods to assess […]
Read MoreAuthor: Patsy Newitt Becker’s ASC Review Although the ASC industry remains fragmented, some leaders are worried about the viability of independent ASCs amid an increasingly consolidated healthcare landscape. “I am focused on the consolidation of health systems, capital equity firms, private practices and third-party payers purchasing practices and ASCs,” Matt Kraemer, administrator of Northern Arizona […]

BACKGROUND: Although neuraxial anesthesia may promote improved outcomes for patients undergoing lower limb revascularization surgery, its use is decreasing over time. Our objective was to estimate variation in neuraxial (versus general) anesthesia use for lower limb revascularization at the hospital, […]
Read MoreAUTHORS: Chao, Jerry Y. MD, MS et al Anesthesia & Analgesia 135(6):p 1207-1216, December 2022. | BACKGROUND: Electroencephalogram (EEG) discontinuity can occur at high concentrations of anesthetic drugs, reflecting suppression of electrocortical activity. This EEG pattern has been reported in children and reflects a deep state of anesthesia. Isoelectric events on the EEG, a more extreme degree […]
Read MoreAUTHORS: Baryshnikova, Ekaterina PhD et al Anesthesia & Analgesia 135(6):p 1198-1206, December 2022. BACKGROUND: Postoperative use of platelet function testing to rule out microvascular bleeding due to platelet dysfunction after cardiac surgery still lacks strong reference data and reliable cutoff values, yielding a clinically adequate sensitivity and specificity. The present study aims to investigate the performance […]
