Anesthesia & Analgesia 141(3):536–539, September 2025. doi:10.1213/ANE.0000000000007473 This commentary argues that anesthesiologists face escalating cognitive burden from workforce shortages, sicker patients, and a flood of new literature—conditions that increase the risk of cognitive overload, stress, and error-prone decisions. Traditional supports (journals, databases, protocols) help but don’t provide timely, verified “second […]

Current Opinion in Anesthesiology 38(5):547–552, October 2025. doi:10.1097/ACO.0000000000001524 This review examines remimazolam—an ultrashort-acting benzodiazepine—in neuroanesthesia. Across recent RCTs and case reports, remimazolam generally produced fewer hypotensive episodes, reduced vasopressor requirements, and allowed faster emergence, especially when flumazenil was used. However, higher BIS values at comparable sedation levels raise monitoring accuracy […]
