Author: Alan Mozes HealthDay More than a quarter of all opioid overdoses in the United States involve teenagers, and a full fifth of those cases were likely suicide attempts, new research shows. The findings follow an in-depth analysis of nearly 754,000 American opioid poisoning cases that occurred between 2005 and 2018. All had been reported […]

Therefore, postconditioning could be an effective cardioprotective intervention. Because ischemic postconditioning is an invasive and not practicable treatment, pharmacological postconditioning would be a more suitable […]

Read MoreAuthor: Andis Robeznieks AMA The AMA deliberately uses the term augmented intelligence (AI)—rather than the more common term “artificial intelligence”—when referring to machine-learning computer algorithms that hold the potential to produce dramatic breakthroughs for health care research, population health risk-stratification and diagnostic support. HIT trends in health care And there’s a good reason for that. “In health […]
Read MoreAuthor: Michael Vlessides Anesthesiology News A survey has uncovered wide variability in how orthopedic surgeons interpret their patients’ postoperative opioid consumption after total knee arthroplasty (TKA). The survey, performed at Stanford Health Care, also found that, on average, surgeons are quite accurate when estimating their patients’ true perioperative opioid use. “This research originated from a […]
Read MoreBy Amy Orciari Herman Edited by David G. Fairchild, MD, MPH, and Jaye Elizabeth Hefner, MD There’s very little evidence that any migraine-prevention medication is effective in children, according to a network meta-analysis in JAMA Pediatrics. Researchers examined data from 23 randomized trials that compared different migraine-prevention medications with each other or with placebo in roughly 2200 children […]
Read MoreAuthors: Ebbe L. Bessmann et al Anaesthesiologica Scandiravica March 2020 Background Airway management is a defining skill for anaesthesiologists. Anaesthesiologists must maintain and update these crucial skills throughout their career, but how this is best achieved remains unclear. This study aimed to clarify anaesthesiologists´ procedural volume, confidence in airway management, and their current and preferred […]
Read MoreAuthors: Chengwei Yang et al BMC Anesthesiology volume 20, Article number: 35 (2020) Background A CO2 pneumoperitoneum during a laparoscopic procedure causes violent hemodynamic changes. However, the remifentanil required to inhibit the cardiovascular response to a CO2 pneumoperitoneum combined with propofol remains unknown. Moreover, the sex of the patient may influence the response to opioids, which can affect this requirement. The main […]
Read MoreAUTHORS: Kang, Woon-Seok et al European Journal of Anaesthesiology: March 2020 – Volume 37 – Issue 3 – p 187-195 BACKGROUND Spinal surgery is usually performed in the prone position using a posterior approach. However, the prone position may cause venous engorgement in the back and thus increase surgical bleeding with interruption of surgery. The prone […]
