AUTHORS: Duceau, Baptiste MD et al Anesthesia & Analgesia: May 4, 2017 BACKGROUND: Although thoracic paravertebral block (TPVB) is recommended in major breast surgery, there is no gold standard to assess the success of TPVB. Pupillary dilation reflex (PDR) is the variation of the pupillary diameter after a noxious stimulus. The objective was to evaluate the […]

MD, MPH et al Anesthesia & Analgesia: September 2017 – Volume 125 – Issue 3 – p 837–845 BACKGROUND: The General Anesthesia compared to Spinal anesthesia (GAS) study is a prospective randomized, controlled, multisite, trial designed to assess the influence of general anesthesia (GA) on neurodevelopment at 5 years of age. A […]
Read MoreLarger pain areas are not associated with signs of central sensitization. Results from a study recently published in Pain Medicine indicate that greater pain extent of chronic tension-type headache (CTTH) correlates with older age and greater emotional and physical burdens in patients.1 The study also shows that pain extent is not related to anxiety, depression, or pressure pain […]
Read MoreClobazam was found to be less sedating than commonly used benzodiazepines. Clobazam is more effective than placebo in reducing low back pain, according to a randomized, placebo-controlled trial described in the European Journal of Pain.1 Benzodiazepines were initially used in the treatment of low back pain because of their muscle-relaxant effects. Rodent and human studies suggest […]
Read MoreUsing deep neural network (DNN) models to predict in-hospital mortality and identify high-risk surgical patients produces better or similar results as currently published risk scores, a new study suggests. This application of deep learning could lead to more effective care for high-risk patients and better allocation of hospital resources, according to the researchers. “Patients undergoing […]
