As anaesthesiologists face increasing clinical demands and a limited and competitive funding environment for academic work, the sustainability of academic anaesthesiologists has never been more tenuous. Yet, the speciality needs academic anaesthesiologists in many roles, extending beyond routine clinical duties. Anaesthesiologist educators, researchers, and administrators are required not only to train future generations but also to lead innovation and expansion of anaesthesiology and related specialities, all to improve patient care. ⋯ Although multiple routes to success exist, one common thread is the need for consistent support of strong mentors and sponsors. Moreover, to address inequitable opportunities, we emphasise the need for diversity and inclusivity through global collaboration and exchange that aims to improve access to research training and participation. We are optimistic that by focusing on these fundamental principles, we can help build a more resilient and sustainable future for academic anaesthesiologists around the world.

Poor pain control during the postoperative period has negative implications for recovery, and is a critical risk factor for development of persistent postsurgical pain. The aim of this scoping review is to identify gaps in healthcare delivery that patients undergoing inpatient noncardiac surgeries experience in pain management while recovering at home. ⋯ Open Science Framework (https://osf.io/cq5m6/).

Review Meta Analysis
Intraoperative hypotension and postoperative outcomes: a meta-analysis of randomised trials.
Permissive intra-operative hypotension (MAP ≤60 mmHg) was not associated with increased mortality, but perplexingly was associated with reduced AF and hospital stay.
