AUTHORS: O’Gara, Brian P. MD, MPH et al Anesthesia & Analgesia 136(1):p 51-59, January 2023. BACKGROUND: Volatile anesthetics have been historically preferred for cardiac anesthesia, but the evidence for their superiority to intravenous agents is mixed. We conducted a survey to better understand the current state of practice and the rationale behind provider preferences for anesthesia […]
Read MoreAUTHORS: Zhang, Yu MD et al Anesthesia & Analgesia 136(1):p 34-42, January 2023. BACKGROUND: Surgery is accompanied by a systemic inflammatory response that may presage delirium in susceptible individuals. Little is known about the trajectory of plasma proinflammatory cytokines and their potential associations with postoperative delirium (POD). The current study longitudinally assessed both pro and anti-inflammatory […]

The rate of occurrence of these adverse events may be influenced by the type of anesthesia. Studies comparing total intravenous anesthesia (TIVA) with propofol and […]

BACKGROUND Remimazolam is an ultrashort-acting benzodiazepine that is potentially a practical option for procedural sedation in colonoscopy. OBJECTIVE To test the hypothesis that remimazolam could provide a noninferior discharge time to propofol for ambulatory colonoscopy. DESIGN A prospective, randomised, double-blind, noninferiority clinical trial. […]
