AUTHORS: Georgakis, Nikolas A. BS et al Anesthesia & Analgesia 140(5):p 1004-1011, May 2025. BACKGROUND: Neuromuscular blocking agents (NMBAs) play an integral role in modern anesthesia by facilitating endotracheal tube placement, assisting with mechanical ventilation, and creating optimal surgical conditions. However, NMBAs can have deleterious side effects. The purpose of this study was to retrospectively analyze […]
Read MoreAUTHORS: Goeddel, Lee A. MD, MPH et al Anesthesia & Analgesia April 17, 2025. BACKGROUND: Prior studies identified thresholds for mean arterial pressure (MAP <65 mm Hg) and central venous pressure (CVP >12 mm Hg) beyond which risk for cardiac surgery-associated acute kidney injury (AKI) increases. Optimal hemodynamic targets—that is, where active protection from AKI […]
Read MoreAUTHORS: Hodapp, Joseph W. MD et al Anesthesia & Analgesia April 25, 2025. BACKGROUND: Focused anesthesia education may be beneficial for resource-constrained settings where inadequate training along with lack of infrastructure, staff, and supplies can contribute to high anesthetic morbidity and mortality rates. Some medical outreach efforts have transitioned from short-term and service-focused “missions” to […]
Read MoreAUTHORS: Lee, Yeji MSc et al Anesthesia & Analgesia April 25, 2025. BACKGROUND: Delayed emergence from anesthesia presents clinical challenges, including prolonged stays in the postanesthesia care unit (PACU). The neurobiological mechanisms underlying delayed emergence, particularly in remimazolam-induced anesthesia, remain poorly understood. This study aimed to explore patterns of brain electrical activity of delayed emergence […]

Read MoreWe’re excited to announce the formation of a new anesthesia group in Riverdale, GA, located just 10 minutes from the Atlanta Airport. We’re seeking dedicated CRNAs to join our collaborative care team, which will include 4 full-time CRNAs and 2 anesthesiologists managing 4 operating rooms. This is a 25% independent practice and doing own blocks! […]
Read MoreAuthors: Rowlands B et al Cureus 17(4): e83172. April 29, 2025 Abstract Introduction: The ability to manage tracheostomy emergencies is vital within the intensive care unit (ICU); however, due to clinical pressures, access to teaching and training is often limited. Simulation training using portable virtual reality (VR) headsets may provide increased access to this training […]
Read MoreAuthors: Kuratomi H et al Cureus 17(4): e83254. April 30, 2025 Abstract We report a young cardiac surgery patient who developed severe aspiration pneumonia due to postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) despite prophylactic and therapeutic administration of multiple antiemetic agents. A 19-year-old woman underwent corrective surgery for partial anomalous pulmonary venous connection. On postoperative day […]
Read MoreAUTHORS: Ahrens, Elena cand. med. et al Anesthesia & Analgesia April 18, 2025. BACKGROUND: Nondepolarizing neuromuscular blocking agents (ND-NMBAs) are dose-dependently associated with residual paralysis, delayed recovery, and prolonged hospitalization, factors that can predispose patients to postoperative delirium. We hypothesized that neuromuscular blockade is associated with a higher risk of delirium after surgery, and that […]
Read MoreAuthors: Maldonado-Crespo C et al Cureus 17(5): e83287. May 1, 2025 Abstract Alexander’s disease is a rare and progressive neurodegenerative disorder that presents significant challenges for anesthetic management due to its effects on the central nervous system. The disease stems from mutations in the glial fibrillary acidic protein (i.e., GFAP) gene, leading to impaired myelination […]
