Read MoreAUTHORS: Yu, Le MD, PhD et al Anesthesia & Analgesia February 18, 2025. BACKGROUND: Many patients undergoing surgery experience accompanying pain symptoms preoperatively. The impact of painful stimuli on general anesthesia remains largely unknown. Corticotrophin-releasing hormone neurons in the paraventricular nucleus of the hypothalamus (PVNCRH neurons) are crucial central stress hubs that respond to painful stimuli. […]
Read MoreAUTHORS: Valadkhani, Arman MD et al Anesthesia & Analgesia February 20, 2025. BACKGROUND: Intraoperative hypotension (IOH) and tachycardia are associated with perioperative myocardial injury (PMI), and thereby increased postoperative mortality. Patients undergoing vascular surgery are specifically at risk of developing cardiac complications. This study aimed to explore the association between different thresholds for IOH and […]

Clinically, hemolysis is often identified using […]
Read MoreAUTHORS: Fu, Danyun MD et al Anesthesia & Analgesia March 31, 2025. BACKGROUND: Simulation-based training for flexible optical intubation (FOI) is effective but costly and often unavailable in remote areas. Online, hands-on training using affordable, shippable models could be a feasible alternative. METHODS: In this noninferiority randomized controlled trial, 30 participants with fewer than 5 […]
Read MoreAuthor: Carolyn Brown Medscape Anesthesiology Blood oxygen measurements taken with pulse oximeters in hospitals tend to be lower than they really are, according to the Equiox study, which was designed to assess the technology’s measurement capabilities in people with various skin tones. “In a real-world study of critically-ill patients, the performance [of pulse oximeters] was […]
