AUTHORS: Boring, Brandon L. et al PAIN Reports 8(2):p e1068, March/April 2023. Introduction: Experiencing stress can contribute to unfavorable pain experiences, but outcomes vary across individuals. Evidence suggests that a person’s specific reactivity to stressful events may influence pain responses. Previous studies measuring physiological stress reactivity have found associations with pain both clinically and in the […]

BACKGROUND Volatile anaesthesia may increase blood loss because of the uterine-relaxing effect of the volatile anaesthetics during caesarean section under general anaesthesia. RESULTS We identified 26 585 women, including 19 320 in the volatile anaesthesia group (mean age = 32.9 […]
Read MoreAUTHORS: Ostović, Helena MD et al Anesthesia & Analgesia May 2023. BACKGROUND: Colorectal resections are associated with a pronounced inflammatory response, severe postoperative pain, and postoperative ileus. The aim of this study was to evaluate the main effects of lidocaine and ketamine, and their interaction in colorectal cancer (CRC) patients after open surgery. The interaction […]
Read MoreAUTHORS: Fliegenschmidt et al European Journal of Anaesthesiology and Intensive Care 2(1):p e0010, February 2023. BACKGROUND Postoperative delirium is a highly relevant complication of cardiac surgery. It is associated with worse outcomes and considerably increased costs of care. A novel approach of monitoring patients with machine learning enabled prediction software could trigger pre-emptive implementation of mitigation […]
Read MoreAUTHORS: Böck, Carl et al European Journal of Anaesthesiology and Intensive Care 2(2):p e0020, April 2023. BACKGROUND In anaesthesiology, time domain parameters of the ECG are frequently used for long QT diagnosis, determination of branch blocks and for identifying atrioventricular blocks. However, this analysis depends on several factors and therefore the time domain parameters are prone […]
Read MoreAUTHORS: Aceto, Paola et al European Journal of Anaesthesiology and Intensive Care 2(2):p e0019, April 2023. Steep and reverse Trendelenburg positions are often used in robotic-assisted surgery (RAS) to improve surgical access. The elderly are particularly vulnerable to the cardiovascular effect of the combination of pneumoperitoneum and these extreme positions. Falls in both cardiac output (CO) […]
Read MoreAUTHORS: Giordano, Giovanni et al European Journal of Anaesthesiology 40(5):p 313-325, May 2023. BACKGROUND Predicting a difficult airway, including difficult laryngoscopy, intubation or mask ventilation, is paramount in peri-operative management. As clinical predictors are only partially reliable, ultrasound-based measurements might be useful in evaluating anterior neck fat tissues depth. OBJECTIVES The aim of this systematic review […]
Read MoreAUTHORS: Yan, Huan MD et al Anesthesia & Analgesia 137(2):p 399-408, August 2023. BACKGROUND: The effectiveness and safety of opioid-free anesthesia (OFA) regimens in distinct types of surgeries remain controversial. In this study, we investigated whether OFA could reduce the occurrence of chronic postoperative pain in patients receiving video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS). METHODS: We conducted a […]
Read MoreAUTHORS: Minjae MD et al Anesthesia & Analgesia 138(1):p 187-197, January 2024. BACKGROUND: Women’s underrepresentation in positions of leadership in medicine has been attributed to environmental, structural, motivational, and situational factors. The purpose of this study was to design and validate a survey instrument based on these constructs, using a sample of men and women anesthesiologists […]
Read MoreAUTHORS: Jonker, Philip et al European Journal of Anaesthesiology 40(5):p 343-355, May 2023. BACKGROUND The design of the optimal preoperative evaluation is a much debated topic, with the anaesthetist-led in-person evaluation being most widely used. This approach is possibly leading to overuse of a valuable resource, especially in low-risk patients. Without compromising patient safety, we hypothesised […]
