ASA Monitor February 2022, Vol. 86, 14. New medical technology designed to better manage hypotension during surgery gains FDA clearance Directed Systems Limited, a medical software and data science company based in Cambridge, U.K., recently received U.S. Food and Drug Administration 510(k) clearance for a new version of its Hypotension Decision Assist (HDA) software, HDA-OR2. This […]
Read MoreAuthors: Rune P. Hasselager, M.D. et al Anesthesiology March 2022, Vol. 136, 459–471. Background Surgery is the main curative treatment for colorectal cancer.

It has been suggested that epidural analgesia preserves immune competency and prevents metastasis formation. Hence, the authors tested the […]

Postinduction hypotension is the most common sign but is not specific. It was recently suggested that low end-tidal carbon dioxide (ETco2) might be a marker of anaphylaxis (Ring and Messmer grades […]
