Randomized Controlled Trial
Lung-protective ventilation during Trendelenburg pneumoperitoneum surgery: A randomized clinical trial.
Study objective To assess the effects of a protective ventilation strategy during Trendelenburg pneumoperitoneum surgery on postoperative oxygenation. ⋯ In obese patients undergoing Trendelenburg pneumoperitoneum surgery, PV did not improve postoperative oxygenation nor day-2 respiratory function. PV was associated with intraoperative respiratory mechanics indicating less injurious ventilation. The high prevalence of complete airway closure may have affected study results.

Efficacy and safety of Ciprofol for procedural sedation and anesthesia in non-operating room settings.
Ciprofol, a novel intravenous anesthetic, provides rapid recovery in patients undergoing colonoscopy. We aimed to examine the efficacy and safety of ciprofol in comparison with propofol for sedation or anesthesia in non-operating room settings including endoscopic submucosal dissection, endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography, and flexible bronchoscopy (FB). ⋯ Ciprofol induced a level of sedation or anesthesia equivalent to that induced by propofol in non-operating room settings except for a prolonged induction time in patients undergoing FB. Ciprofol had a safety profile similar to that of propofol. No pain on injection was reported by ciprofol.

Randomized Controlled Trial
Efficacy of maintaining low-tidal volume mechanical ventilation as compared to resting lung strategy during coronary artery bypass graft cardiopulmonary bypass surgery: A post-hoc analysis of the MECANO trial.
To compare a low-tidal-volume with positive end-expiratory pressure strategy (VENT strategy) to a resting-lung-strategy (i.e., no-ventilation (noV) strategy) during cardiopulmonary bypass for coronary artery bypass graft surgery on the incidence of postoperative pulmonary complications. ⋯ In this post-hoc analysis, maintaining low-tidal ventilation compared to a resting-lung strategy was associated with fewer pulmonary postoperative complications in patients who underwent isolated CABG procedures.
