Randomized Controlled Trial Comparative Study
Postoperative quality of recovery comparison between ciprofol and propofol in total intravenous anesthesia for elderly patients undergoing laparoscopic major abdominal surgery: A randomized, controlled, double-blind, non-inferiority trial.
We conducted a non-inferiority study to assess the postoperative quality of recovery (QoR) in elderly patients receiving ciprofol or propofol total intravenous anesthersia(TIVA)after elective laparoscopic major abdominal surgery, with QoR-15 scores as the main measure. ⋯ Ciprofol is not inferior to propofol in QoR. Ciprofol can be suitably administered to elderly patients undergoing elective laparoscopic major abdominal surgery.

Meta Analysis
Impact of intravenous steroids on subjective recovery quality after surgery: A meta-analysis of randomized clinical trials.
Quality of postoperative recovery is a crucial aspect of perioperative care. This meta-analysis aimed to evaluate the efficacy of intravenous steroids in improving the quality of recovery (QoR) after surgery, as measured by validated QoR scales. ⋯ Intravenous administration of steroids significantly improved QoR after surgery. The benefits of steroids extend to all dimensions of QoR and important clinical outcomes such as analgesic requirements, pain scores, and PONV. These findings support the use of steroids as an effective strategy to enhance the postoperative recovery quality.

Randomized Controlled Trial
Gastric insufflation with and without an inserted gastric tube in second-generation laryngeal mask airways: A randomized controlled cross-over trial.
Second-generation laryngeal mask airways are equipped with an additional lumen for a gastric tube, with the intention to reduce the risk of aspiration by draining gastric content. However, the effect of an inserted gastric tube through the gastric channel on gastric insufflation, a substantial part of the pathomechanism of aspiration, during positive-pressure ventilation is not clear. We hypothesized, that an inserted gastric tube increases the risk of gastric insufflation. ⋯ Placement of a gastric tube through the gastric channel of a second-generation laryngeal mask airway, independent of the cuff-type, increases the risk of gastric insufflation. Flow over the gastric channel indicate a higher risk of gastric insufflation and gastric insufflation may increase the risk of postoperative nausea and vomiting.

In recent years, the integration of advanced diabetes technology into the care of individuals with diabetes has grown exponentially. Given their increasing prevalence, insulin-requiring people with diabetes may present to preoperative clinics or the operating rooms wearing such devices. ⋯ Therefore, perioperative clinicians need to become familiar with diabetes technological advances, and device features and have an understanding of how they can be used in the perioperative period. This consensus statement aims to serve as an educational material as well as to serve as a guide to perioperative clinicians caring for patients wearing diabetes devices (insulin pumps and continuous glucose monitors).

Randomized Controlled Trial
Recovery quality of transversus abdominis plane block with liposomal bupivacaine after cesarean delivery: A randomized trial.
This study aimed to investigate the effect of liposomal bupivacaine in transversus abdominis plane block (TAP) on recovery quality after cesarean delivery. ⋯ TAP block using either liposomal bupivacaine or a mixture of plain bupivacaine and liposomal bupivacaine provided superior quality of recovery at 24 h after cesarean delivery compared to using plain bupivacaine alone.
