Authors: Richard L. Fidler, Ph.D., M.B.A., C.R.N.A., N.P. et al Anesthesiology January 2021, Vol. 134, 61–71. Background Disease severity in coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) may be associated with inoculation dose. This has triggered interest in intubation barrier devices to block droplet exposure; however, aerosol protection with these devices is not known. This study hypothesized that barrier […]

Burnout in the clinical environment can be described as a psychophysical condition that develops when the professional demands on an individual persistently exceed the available professional and personal resources. Burnout has traditionally been characterized by three domains: emotional exhaustion […]
Read MoreAUTHORS: Karlsson, Jacob MD, PhD et al Anesthesia & Analgesia: September 2020 BACKGROUND: Mixed venous oxygen saturation (SvO2) is important when evaluating the balance between oxygen delivery and whole-body oxygen consumption. Monitoring SvO2 has so far required blood samples from a pulmonary artery catheter. By combining volumetric capnography, for measurement of effective pulmonary blood flow, with the […]

Read MoreAUTHORS: Chanan, Emily L. MD et al Anesthesia & Analgesia: October 2020 – Volume 131 – Issue 4 – p 1156-1163 BACKGROUND: Ideal timing of postoperative β-blockers is unclear. We hypothesized that patients who do not receive β-blockers immediately after cardiac surgery would have increased in-hospital mortality (primary outcome) and postoperative hemodynamic, pulmonary, neurologic, or […]

MD et al Anesthesia & Analgesia: October 2020 – Volume 131 – Issue 4 – p e198-e200 To the Editor We read with great interest in the article by Hanidziar and Bittner.1 We have observed high sedation requirements in our coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) patient population and sought to quantify the administered […]
Read MoreAuthors: Nasir Hussain, M.D., M.Sc. et al Anesthesiology January 2021, Vol. 134, 72–87. Background Spinal morphine is the mainstay of postcesarean analgesia. Quadratus lumborum block has recently been proposed as an adjunct or alternative to spinal morphine. The authors evaluated the analgesic effectiveness of quadratus lumborum block in cesarean delivery with and without spinal morphine. Methods […]

We evaluated the association between intraoperative HES administration and […]

Hydroxyethyl starch (HES) is associated with increased bleeding and kidney injury in patients with sepsis, […]
