Anesthesiology May 2024, Vol. 140, A13–A15. Conservative versus liberal oxygenation targets in critically ill children (Oxy-PICU): A UK multicentre, open, parallel-group, randomised clinical trial. Lancet 2024; 403:355–64. PMID: 38048787. Article Selection: Beatrice Beck-Schimmer, M.D. Image: Adobe Stock. Various clinical trials have been performed to identify the optimal oxygenation for invasively ventilated children, but it remains unclear […]
Read MoreAuthors: Manuel C. Vallejo, M.D., D.M.D. et al Anesthesiology April 2024. To the Editor: Both parturients and healthcare providers have fears of neurologic complications associated with neuraxial analgesia/anesthesia, even though the odds are 5- to 10-fold higher for obstetric-related injury. More than half of parturients want to be informed of anesthetic risks even at a […]
Read MoreAuthor: Brigette Hyacinth Linkin Healthcare Leadership Focus One of the most valuable leadership styles is servant leadership, which derives its philosophy from the basics of compassionate communication and emotional intelligence. It ensures a leader’s team members feel heard, seen and valued. This is proven to yield higher levels of job performance as well as outstanding […]
Read MoreAuthors: Susie Yoon, M.D., Ph.D. et al Anesthesiology May 2024, Vol. 140, 920–934. Background Mechanical power (MP), the rate of mechanical energy (ME) delivery, is a recently introduced unifying ventilator parameter consisting of tidal volume, airway pressures, and respiratory rates, which predicts pulmonary complications in several clinical contexts. However, ME has not been previously studied in […]
Read MoreAutors: David Berger, M.D. et al Anesthesiology May 2024, Vol. 140, 1002–1015. Background Thermodilution is unreliable in veno-venous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VV-ECMO). Systemic oxygenation depends on recirculation fractions and ratios of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) flow to cardiac output. In a prospective in vitro simulation, this study assessed the diagnostic accuracy of a modified thermodilution technique for recirculation […]
