Online video sharing platforms like YouTube (Google LLC, San Bruno, CA, USA) have become a substantial source of health information. We sought to conduct a systematic review of studies assessing the overall quality of perioperative anesthesia videos on YouTube. ⋯ Open Science Framework ( https://osf.io/ajse9 ); first posted, 1 May 2023.

Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion (EDI) initiatives within critical care research are limited by a lack of resources and inconsistent and rapidly changing language. The Canadian Critical Care Trials Group (CCCTG) is committed to modelling EDI for the critical care community through its programming, communications, protocols, and policies. The objective of developing the EDI glossary of sociodemographic determinants of health described here was to provide a resource for critical care professionals to support broader equity initiatives and to promote education and awareness about inclusive language. ⋯ This EDI glossary of sociodemographic determinants of health serves as a nonexhaustive resource that may be referenced by critical care researchers, research coordinators, clinicians, and patient and family partners. The glossary is an essential step to raising awareness about inclusive terminology and to fostering and advancing equity in critical care medicine.

Recent studies have reported the use of the obstetric-specific quality of recovery tool (ObsQoR-10) to assess the quality of recovery in parturients after childbirth; however, the correlation between ObsQoR-10 scores and important postpartum outcomes are unclear. The primary aim of the present study was to investigate the correlations between ObsQoR-10 scores at 24 hr after Cesarean delivery and breastfeeding, depressive symptomatology, overall health, and pain at seven days postpartum. ⋯ ClinicalTrials.gov ( NCT04989894 ); first submitted 4 July 2021.

Randomized Controlled Trial Comparative Study
Channelled versus nonchannelled Macintosh videolaryngoscope blades in patients with a cervical collar: a randomized controlled noninferiority trial.
Channelled blades have the advantage of avoiding stylet use and potential airway injury during videolaryngoscopic intubation. Nevertheless, the effectiveness of channelled Macintosh-type blades has not yet been fully established. We sought to assess the utility of channelled Macintosh-type blades for videolaryngoscopic intubation under cervical spine immobilization. ⋯ CRIS.nih.go.kr ( KCT0005186 ); first submitted 29 June 2020.

Randomized Controlled Trial
Prevention of hypotension after induction of general anesthesia using point-of-care ultrasound to guide fluid management: a randomized controlled trial.
Hypotension after induction of general anesthesia (GAIH) is common and is associated with postoperative complications including increased mortality. Collapsibility of the inferior vena cava (IVC) has good performance in predicting GAIH; however, there is limited evidence whether a preoperative fluid bolus in patients with a collapsible IVC can prevent this drop in blood pressure. ⋯ ClinicalTrials.gov (NCT05424510); first submitted 15 June 2022.
