Association of Intravenous Neostigmine and Anticholinergics or Sugammadex with Postoperative Delirium

AUTHORS: Rössler, Julian MD et al Anesthesia & Analgesia 140(1):p 110-118, January 2025. BACKGROUND: Administration of cholinesterase inhibitors in combination with anticholinergic drugs for reversal of neuromuscular blocks may precipitate delirium through impairment of central cholinergic transmission, which could be avoided by using sugammadex. Therefore, we tested the primary hypothesis that postoperative delirium is less common […]

Blood Pressure Estimation Using Explainable Deep-Learning Models Based on Photoplethysmography

AUTHORS: Perdereau, Jade MSc et al Anesthesia & Analgesia 140(1):p 119-128, January 2025. BACKGROUND: Due to their invasiveness, arterial lines are not typically used in routine monitoring, despite their superior responsiveness in hemodynamic monitoring and detecting intraoperative hypotension. To address this issue, noninvasive, continuous arterial pressure monitoring is necessary. We developed a deep-learning model that reconstructs […]
