AUTHORS: Cover, Paul BA et al Anesthesia & Analgesia March 04, 2025. BACKGROUND: Although the importance of transporter availability to the operating room and phase I postanesthesia care unit workflow has been known since Marcon et al Anesth & Analg 2003, no detailed data have been published about patient transport times. Nearly all facilities know the times of […]

One major cause of cancelations is nil by mouth (nil per os [NPO]) noncompliance. Previous single-center studies show conflicting results regarding risk factors for cancelations. The primary objective of […]

BACKGROUND: Normal sleep architecture is important for brain development, and we previously demonstrated that a single exposure to isoflurane during the neonatal period did not induce changes in the sleep architecture and only minimally altered neuronal beta oscillations in adolescent […]
Read MoreAUTHORS: Dexter, Franklin MD, PhD et al Anesthesia & Analgesia February 28, 2025. BACKGROUND: Human studies of awakening from general anesthesia inform understanding of neural mechanisms underlying recovery of consciousness. Probability distributions of times for emergence from anesthesia provide mechanistic information on whether putative biological models are generalizable. Previously reported distributions involved nonhomogenous groups, unsuitable […]
