Randomized Controlled Trial
Intrathecal morphine and sleep apnoea severity in patients undergoing hip arthroplasty: a randomised, controlled, triple-blinded trial.
Intrathecal morphine 100mcg did not increase obstructive sleep apnea severity in those undergoing hip arthroplasty under spinal anesthesia.

Effects of anaesthesia method and tourniquet use on recovery following total knee arthroplasty: a randomised controlled study.
Recovery after total knee arthroplasty was similar for spinal and general anaesthesia across broad post-operative indicators.

Randomized Controlled Trial Comparative Study
Comparing erector spinae plane block with serratus anterior plane block for minimally invasive thoracic surgery: a randomised clinical trial.
Minimally invasive thoracic surgery causes significant postoperative pain. Erector spinae plane (ESP) block and serratus anterior plane (SAP) block promise effective thoracic analgesia compared with systemically administered opioids, but have never been compared in terms of terms of quality of recovery and overall morbidity after minimally invasive thoracic surgery. ⋯ NCT03862612.

Randomized Controlled Trial
Fully automated postoperative ventilation in cardiac surgery patients: a randomised clinical trial.
Ensuring that lung-protective ventilation is achieved at scale is challenging in perioperative practice. Fully automated ventilation may be more effective in delivering lung-protective ventilation. Here, we compared automated lung-protective ventilation with conventional ventilation after elective cardiac surgery in haemodynamically stable patients. ⋯ NCT03180203.
