Authors: Tong C et al. Anesthesiology, December 29, 2025, 10.1097/ALN.0000000000005846 This randomized controlled trial evaluated the effectiveness of the ultrasound-guided external oblique intercostal (EOI) plane block using ropivacaine for postoperative analgesia in patients undergoing open hepatectomy. The EOI plane block is a relatively new regional anesthesia technique designed to provide analgesia to the upper abdominal […]

Anesthesiology, February 03, 2026, 10.1097/ALN.0000000000005968 This prospective quality improvement study evaluated whether a structured anesthetic protocol could increase the likelihood of dreaming during surgical anesthesia. Previous research has shown that dreaming during anesthesia occurs in a subset of patients and may be associated with positive subjective experiences and potential mental […]

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 […]
Read MoreHardin Medical Center (122 beds) is offering a rare CRNA-only practice where you can enjoy full autonomy and an exceptional lifestyle. • Schedule: 2 weeks on / 1 week off (17 weeks off each year)• Model: Independent CRNA practice – no anesthesiologist supervision• Case Mix: General surgery, orthopedics, endoscopy, OB/GYN (including epidurals & C-sections)• No […]
Read MoreAuthors: Qiu G et al. 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 […]
Read MoreAuthors: Chen F et al. Anesthesiology, February 05, 2026, 10.1097/ALN.0000000000005974 This multi-institutional study examined how anesthesiology trainees and attending physicians perceive professionalism and unprofessional conduct in clinical training environments. Professionalism is considered a core competency in graduate medical education, yet there is limited specialty-specific research examining whether trainees and faculty interpret professional behaviors differently. The […]

Anesthesiology, February 05, 2026, 10.1097/ALN.0000000000005931 This prospective crossover trial evaluated how effectively intranasal naloxone reverses opioid-induced respiratory depression caused by potent synthetic opioids. Because current overdose deaths are frequently related to high-affinity opioids such as fentanyl and its analogs, understanding the performance of commonly used intranasal naloxone formulations […]
Read MoreAuthors: Lin M-C et al. Anesthesiology, February 12, 2026, 10.1097/ALN.0000000000005978 This study explored how overdose exposure to propofol emulsion may injure human peripheral neutrophils and provides mechanistic insight relevant to propofol infusion syndrome (PRIS). PRIS is a rare but severe complication associated with excessive or prolonged propofol exposure and is typically characterized by metabolic derangements, […]
