Read MoreAuthors: Becker S et al. Anesthesiology, November 17, 2025 DOI: 10.1097/ALN.0000000000005851 SummaryThis single-center randomized controlled trial compared Flow-Controlled Ventilation (FCV) with conventional Pressure-Controlled Ventilation (PCV) in 140 adults undergoing on-pump cardiac surgery. These patients are especially vulnerable to perioperative lung injury and systemic inflammation, and the investigators hypothesized that FCV—by precisely regulating inspiratory and expiratory […]
Read MoreAuthor: Francesca Mathewes Becker’s ASC Review ASC administrators and leaders continue to face a dire situation when it comes to anesthesia staffing. Recent projections indicate that by 2036, the country will be short 6,300 anesthesiologists, and 56.9% of currently practicing anesthesiologists are already over age 55. The provider staffing shortage also extends to certified registered nurse anesthetists, who make […]
Read MoreAuthor: Sophie Eydis Becker’s ASC Review Anesthesia departments are being challenged to deliver the same level of safety and excellence with dwindling resources as hospitals face mounting financial strain. Across the country, anesthesia leaders are innovating to align high-quality care with operational efficiency — proving that cost control and clinical excellence don’t necessarily have to […]
Read MoreAuthor: Sophie Eydis Becker’s ASC Review As anesthesia groups confront workforce constraints and rising case volumes, leaders are turning to remote and tele-enabled models to extend coverage and improve efficiency. The shift is being driven by technology, staffing shortages and the growing demand for anesthesia in nontraditional settings such as ASCs, imaging centers and office-based […]
Read MoreAuthors: Zhang H et al. BMC Anesthesiology 25:554, 2025 SummaryThis observational study evaluated whether two noninvasive hemodynamic measures—corrected carotid flow time (cFT) and inferior vena cava collapsibility index (IVC-CI)—are correlated in twin-pregnancy parturients undergoing cesarean delivery under spinal anesthesia. These patients are at particularly high risk of spinal-induced hypotension and fluid shifts, making reliable volume-status […]

Read MoreAuthor: Francesca Mathewes Becker’s ASC Review The anesthesia staffing crisis in the U.S. is generally understood to be caused by several factors that can be boiled down to a supply-and-demand issue. Nearly 30% of anesthesiologists are projected to leave the practice by 2033, according to a 2023 white paper from Medicus Healthcare Solutions. Currently, the U.S. has a […]

European Journal of Anaesthesiology 42(12):1046–1055, December 2025DOI: 10.1097/EJA.0000000000002261 SummaryThis randomized, blinded, active-controlled trial evaluated whether mixing lidocaine–epinephrine with ropivacaine alters the duration of analgesia or onset time in lateral infraclavicular brachial plexus blocks. Seventy-eight patients undergoing hand surgery were randomized into three groups: full-dose ropivacaine (R150), reduced-dose ropivacaine plus lidocaine–epinephrine […]

Anesthesia & Analgesia 141(5):988–994, November 2025 DOI:10.1213/ANE.0000000000007490 SummaryThis retrospective analysis from the American Board of Anesthesiology reviewed all first-attempt BASIC Examination results from 2014 through 2022, linking them to resident demographics, program characteristics, and prior in-training examination (CBY ITE) performance. The goal was to determine whether specific demographic groups had […]
