AUTHORS: Patrick L. Purdon, PhD et al ASA Monitor May 2022, Vol. 86, 1–9. The brain under anesthesia is a marvel to behold. Although the electroencephalogram (EEG) is not a routine part of clinical anesthesia care, there is growing evidence that readily visible changes in the anesthesia-induced EEG are intimately linked to perioperative brain health. Induction […]

While the incidence of MH is high in young, there are few reports on the clinical features of […]

BS et al Anesthesia & Analgesia: July 2022 – Volume 135 – Issue 1 – p 118-127 BACKGROUND: The rise in obesity in the United States, along with improvements in antiviral therapies, has led to an increase in the number of obese patients receiving liver transplants. Currently, obesity is a relative contraindication […]
Read MoreAUTHORS: Hsu, Wan-Ting MS et al Anesthesia & Analgesia: July 2022 – Volume 135 – Issue 1 – p 110-117 BACKGROUND: Aspirin has anti-inflammatory and antiplatelet activities and directly inhibits bacterial growth. These effects of aspirin may improve survival in patients with sepsis. We retrospectively reviewed a large national health database to test the relationship between […]

However, a high Fio2 is not physiologic and may lead to various complications. We hypothesized that continuous titration of Fio2 using the oxygen […]

The pressure recording analytical method (PRAM), implemented in the MostCareUp system (Vygon), […]
Read MoreAUTHORS: Wu, Zhijie MD et al Anesthesia & Analgesia: July 2022 – Volume 135 – Issue 1 – p 62-70 BACKGROUND: CO2 has anesthetic potency and effectively influences the circulatory system. We investigated the effects of Etco2 on the minimum alveolar concentration of sevoflurane that blunts the adrenergic response to surgical incision (MAC-BAR) in patients undergoing radical surgery […]
Read MoreAuthor: Ferdinand Lali, Ph.D. MedicalNewsToday A new observational study suggests that intravenous administration of the anesthetic agent lidocaine could help alleviate pain in individuals hospitalized with hard-to-treat chronic migraines. Nearly 88% of chronic migraine patients receiving intravenous lidocaine during hospitalization showed a reduction in pain intensity at discharge. This study paves the way for randomized […]

The pain management has been traditionally based on intravenous opioids with growing evidence suggesting the use of opioid-free and […]

We assessed whether there is a difference in postoperative delirium […]
