Authors: Hoda W et al Cureus 17(5): e84568. doi:10.7759/cureus.84568 Background Effective perioperative pain control in elderly patients undergoing hip fracture surgery remains a challenge due to the adverse effects of opioids and limitations of conventional nerve blocks. The ultrasound-guided pericapsular nerve group (PENG) block offers targeted analgesia with minimal motor blockade, supporting early mobilization. This […]
Read MoreAuthors: Zapf, Matthew M.D. et al Anesthesiology ():10.1097/ALN.0000000000005577, May 23, 2025. Background: Perioperative hyperglycemia is associated with adverse patient outcomes including surgical site infections. This study examined whether an automated insulin dosing reminder is associated with a lower risk for postoperative hyperglycemia and other secondary and safety outcomes in patients at high risk for intraoperative hyperglycemia. […]
Read MoreAuthor: Patsy Newitt Becker’s ASC Review As ASCs grapple with fluctuating anesthesia coverage and rising costs, many administrators are finding themselves in a constant balancing act.

Question: […]
Read MoreAuthors: Ju, Ling-Sha Ph.D et al Anesthesiology ():10.1097/ALN.0000000000005578, May 23, 2025. Background: Vulnerability to perioperative neurocognitive disorder (PND) and the mechanisms initiating PND, which may serve as targets for prevention, are incompletely understood. We hypothesized that sevoflurane can induce persistent upregulation of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis, inflammation, and behavioral deficits in young adult male rats by […]

BACKGROUND: Minimum alveolar concentration (MAC) is used as the standard measure of potency for volatile anesthetic agents. However, there is a lack of effective and quantitative indicator of the combined potency of multiple coadministered inhalation and intravenous anesthetics. We hypothesized that an […]

BACKGROUND: Malignant hyperthermia (MH) is a life-threatening pharmacogenetic disorder triggered by certain anesthetics, characterized by muscle rigidity, elevated body temperature, and hypermetabolic crisis. This condition is primarily associated with genetic mutations in ryanodine receptor 1 (RYR1), which encodes the pivotal calcium release channel […]
Read MoreAuthor: Patsy Newitt Becker’s ASC Review Amid a growing anesthesia workforce shortage, stakeholders across the industry are pondering how to build a more sustainable and effective pipeline of providers. Seven anesthesia leaders connected with Becker’s to discuss their most urgent priorities for combating the shortage, from workforce collaboration to expansion of training programs. Question: What are the […]
