Authors: Ling-Sha Ju, M.S. et al Anesthesiology January 2023. Background We tested the hypothesis that the effects of traumatic brain injury, surgery and sevoflurane interact to induce neurobehavioral abnormalities in adult male rats and/or in their offspring (an animal model of intergenerational perioperative neurocognitive disorder). Methods Sprague-Dawley male rats (F0 generation) underwent a traumatic brain […]
Read MoreAuthors: Richard Descamps, M.D. et al Anesthesiology January 2023. To the Editor: We read with interest the study by de la Hoz et al., focusing on the association between intraoperative hypotension and postoperative complications in the field of cardiac surgery. We strongly agree with the importance of perfusion pressure during cardiac surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass. However, […]

They discuss several well-known studies concerning the need for a higher perioperative blood pressure threshold in hypertensive patients to prevent acute kidney injury. The primary outcome of our study was not a single adverse […]

Background The clinical actions of sugammadex have been well studied, but the detailed molecular mechanism of the drug encapsulation process has not been systematically documented. The hypothesis was that sugammadex would attract rocuronium and vecuronium via interaction with the sugammadex side-chain “tentacles,” as previously suggested. […]
Read MoreAuthors: Philip J Peyton, MD PhD MBBS FANZCA et al Anesthesiology January 2023. Background Nitrous oxide (N2O) promotes absorption atelectasis in poorly ventilated lung segments at high inspired concentrations. The ENIGMA Trial found a higher incidence of postoperative pulmonary complications (PPCs) and wound sepsis with N2O anesthesia in major surgery compared to FIO2 0.8 without N2O. […]

Background The objective was to assess changes over time in prescriptions filled for nonopioid analgesics for older postoperative patients in the immediate postdischarge period. The authors hypothesized that the number of patients who filled a nonopioid analgesic prescription increased during the study […]
Read MoreAuthors: Aranke M et al Pract Pain Manag. 2023 January/February;23(1). Introduction Chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN) affects between 40% and 70% of individuals undergoing chemotherapy and may significantly affect quality of life by worsening symptomatic clusters, such as psychological distress, fatigue-related pain, and abdominal discomfort.¹˒² There are several proposed mechanisms for CIPN. These range from the […]
Read MoreAuthor: Enrico Giustiniano, M.D.; Fulvio Nisi, M.D. Anesthesiology January 2023. To the Editor: We read with interest the article by Enevoldsen and Vistisen about the predictive model of intraoperative hypotension. Regarding the criticism the authors made about what they named “gray-zone outcome,” we would like to provide some comments. The Hypotension Prediction Index is a new parameter […]
