AUTHORS: Shaefi, Shahzad MD, MPH et al Anesthesia & Analgesia 136(2):p 295-307, February 2023 BACKGROUND: Despite the growing contributions of critical care anesthesiologists to clinical practice, research, and administrative leadership of intensive care units (ICUs), relatively little is known about the subspecialty-specific clinical practice environment. An understanding of contemporary clinical practice is essential to recognize […]
Read MoreAUTHORS: Kwon, Hyun-Jung MD et al Anesthesia & Analgesia 136(2):p 365-372, February 2023 BACKGROUND: Although the ultrasound-guided rectus sheath block (RSB) is usually regarded as an easy and safe procedure in clinical settings, there is currently no report on complications incidence. Therefore, the present study investigated complications in a large cohort and described the technical considerations […]
Read MoreAUTHORS: Lee, Chen-Tse MD et al Anesthesia & Analgesia 136(2):p 355-364, February 2023. BACKGROUND: Perioperative cerebral desaturation events (CDEs) and delayed neurocognitive recovery are common among patients undergoing beach chair position (BCP) shoulder surgery and may be caused by cerebral hypoperfusion. This study tested the hypothesis that the application of goal-directed hemodynamic therapy (GDHT) would attenuate […]
Read MoreAuthors: Jonathan M. Tan, MD, MPH, MBI, FASA et al Anesthesia Patient Safety Foundation Volume 38, No. 1 • February 2023 INTRODUCTION Mpox, previously known as Monkeypox, is a global health concern.1 While first detected in humans in 1970 in the Republic of the Congo, its spread to nonendemic countries in 2022 led the World Health Organization […]
Read MoreAUTHORS: Xu, Biao PhD et al Anesthesia & Analgesia 136(2):p 373-386, February 2023 BACKGROUND: Increasing attention has been attracted to the development of bifunctional compounds to minimize the side effects of opioid analgesics. Pharmacological studies have verified the functional interaction between opioid and cannabinoid systems in pain management, suggesting that coactivation of the opioid and cannabinoid […]
Read MoreAUTHORS: Fleischmann, Antonia MD et al Anesthesia & Analgesia 136(2):p 346-354, February 2023. BACKGROUND: Electroencephalogram (EEG)-based monitors of anesthesia are used to assess patients’ level of sedation and hypnosis as well as to detect burst suppression during surgery. One of these monitors, the Entropy module, uses an algorithm to calculate the burst suppression ratio (BSR) that […]
Read MoreAUTHORS: Olmos, Andrea V. MD et al Anesthesia & Analgesia 136(2):p 327-337, February 2023. BACKGROUND: Volatile anesthetic consumption can be reduced by minimizing excessive fresh gas flows (FGFs). Currently, it is unknown whether decision support tools embedded within commercial electronic health record systems can be successfully adopted to achieve long-term reductions in FGF rates. The authors […]

Anthony PhD, MD§ Anesthesia & Analgesia 136(2):p 317-326, February 2023. BACKGROUND: Prolonged opioid use after surgery (POUS), defined as the filling of at least 1 opioid prescription filled between 90 and 180 days […]
Read MoreAuthors: Holly B. Ende, MD; Jonathan P. Wanderer, MD, MPhil Anesthesia Patient Safety Foundations Volume 38, No. 1 • February 2023 The delivery of safe and effective anesthesia care is grounded in the science of quality improvement, which relies on accurate and timely reporting of patient outcomes. In the era of the electronic health record (EHR) […]
Read MoreAuthors: Jonathan M. Tan, MD, MPH, MBI, FASA; Maxime P. Cannesson, MD, PhD Anesthesia Patient Safety Foundation Volume 38, No. 1 • February 2023 INTRODUCTION Anesthesiology as a specialty has a long history of innovation in technology development linked to improvements in patient safety. However, the speed of technological development in the past 20 years has […]
