Effect of Intravenous, Inhalational, or Combined Anesthesia Maintenance on Postoperative Respiratory Adverse Events in Children Undergoing Adenotonsillectomy (AmPRAEC)

Authors: Shen, Fangming et al. Anesthesiology, August 6, 2025. DOI: 10.1097/ALN.0000000000005707 This large multicenter randomized clinical trial (AmPRAEC study) evaluated how different anesthesia maintenance strategies affect postoperative respiratory adverse events (PRAEs) in children undergoing adenotonsillectomy. Although PRAEs are among the most common and potentially serious complications in pediatric anesthesia, the influence of maintenance techniques—specifically propofol-based […]

Fentanyl-induced Ventilatory Depression: Population Pharmacokinetic–Pharmacodynamic Framework for Evaluation of Opioid-induced Ventilatory Depression

Authors: van Lemmen, Maarten et al. Anesthesiology, September 12, 2025. DOI: 10.1097/ALN.0000000000005710 This study explored how fentanyl affects ventilatory control when used alone—isolated from other anesthetics—to better understand its respiratory depressant effects in clinical settings. Despite widespread use of opioids in anesthesia, their direct influence on ventilation when not confounded by other agents is incompletely […]
