Evaluate Extubation in Neurosurgical Patients: Comment

Authors: Yukiko Yamazaki, M.D. Koji Hosokawa, M.D., Ph.D. Anesthesiology April 2024. To the Editor: We read with great interest the recent article by Xu et al. that discusses how the Swallowing, Tongue protrusion, Airway protection reflected by spontaneous and suctioning cough, and Glasgow coma scale Evaluation (STAGE) score of neurologic patients may predict the success of extubation. However, […]

Influence of Fractional Inspired Oxygen Tension on Lung Perfusion Distribution, Regional Ventilation, and Lung Volume during Mechanical Ventilation of Supine Healthy Swine

Authors: Bruno M. Ribeiro, P.T. et al  Anesthesiology April 2024, Vol. 140, 752–764. Background Lower fractional inspired oxygen tension (Fio2) during general anesthesia can reduce lung atelectasis. The objectives are to evaluate the effect of two Fio2 (0.4 and 1) during low positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) ventilation over lung perfusion distribution, volume, and regional ventilation. These variables were […]

Comparison of the Efficacy of HSK3486 and Propofol for Induction of General Anesthesia in Adults

Authors:  Tong J. Gan, M.D. et al  Anesthesiology April 2024, Vol. 140, 690–700. Background Propofol is an intravenous anesthetic associated with hypotension, respiratory depression, and injection-site pain. HSK3486 injectable emulsion (ciprofol) is a 2,6-disubstituted phenol derivative with fast onset and quick, stable recovery. Previous studies support HSK3486 as an effective, safe anesthetic with substantially less injection-site […]
