Authors: Tang B et al. Anesthesiology, February 03, 2026, 10.1097/ALN.0000000000005909 This clinical report highlights the early diagnosis of postpartum obturator neuropathy using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Postpartum peripheral nerve injuries are uncommon but clinically important complications that may follow vaginal delivery. Early diagnosis is often difficult because neurologic deficits can resemble other postpartum conditions such […]

Anesthesiology, January 23, 2026, 10.1097/ALN.0000000000005950 This experimental study evaluated whether regional anesthesia using ropivacaine influences tissue injury during acute compartment syndrome (ACS). The use of regional anesthesia in patients at risk for compartment syndrome has long been controversial because clinicians worry that nerve blocks may mask pain and delay diagnosis. […]
Read MoreBurnout or time away in pain, ICU, or administration doesn’t erase your anesthesia training—it just requires a structured path back. For many physicians, it simply means you stepped away to regroup. We work with anesthesiologists every day who want to return to clinical anesthesia after time away in: administration or leadership roles pain medicine critical […]

Anesthesiology, January 26, 2026, 10.1097/ALN.0000000000005953 This experimental neuroscience study examined how specific populations of GABAergic neurons in the preoptic area (POA) regulate sleep, wakefulness, and dexmedetomidine-induced sedation. Dexmedetomidine is unique among sedatives because it produces a form of sedation that closely resembles natural sleep and allows patients to remain easily […]
