Randomized Controlled Trial
The effect of lidocaine intraoperative infusion on quality of postoperative sleep in patients undergoing thyroidectomy: a randomized controlled trial.
The incidence of thyroid nodules has increased significantly in recent years, and surgical removal is a common treatment. Postoperative sleep disturbance is still a serious problem in the current surgical environment. In this study, we explored whether intraoperative lidocaine infusion could improve the quality of sleep over 7 days and 30 days after surgery and postoperative recovery for patients undergoing thyroid surgery. ⋯ Systemic lidocaine infusion might not improve the sleep quality and reduce postoperative pain over 7 days or 30 days after the operation of patients who underwent thyroid surgery, but it can reduce postoperative complications and improve the quality of recovery. Furthermore, sleep quality of patients wasn't impaired significantly in the entire 30 days follow-up period after thyroid surgery compared with baseline values.

To examine the prognostic value of HRV measurements during anesthesia for postoperative clinical outcomes prediction using machine learning models. ⋯ This study suggested that HRV measurements during anesthesia are feasible and effective for predicting postoperative clinical outcomes.

Randomized Controlled Trial
Respiratory support with nasal high flow without supplemental oxygen in patients undergoing endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography under moderate sedation: a prospective, randomized, single-center clinical trial.
Nasal high flow (NHF) may reduce hypoxia and hypercapnia during an endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) procedure under sedation. The authors tested a hypothesis that NHF with room air during ERCP may prevent intraoperative hypercapnia and hypoxemia. ⋯ Respiratory support by NHF with room air did not reduce marked hypercapnia during ERCP under sedation relative to LFO. There was no significant difference in the occurrence of hypoxemia between the groups that may indicate an improvement of gas exchanges by NHF.

Post-laparoscopic shoulder pain (PLSP) is a common complication following laparoscopic surgeries. This meta-analysis aimed to investigate whether pulmonary recruitment maneuver (PRM) was beneficial to alleviated shoulder pain after laparoscopic procedures. ⋯ This systematic review and meta-analysis indicate that PRM can reduce the intensity of PLSP. More studies may be needed to explore the usefulness of PRM in more laparoscopic operations besides gynecological surgeries and determine the optimal pressure of PRM or its appropriate combination with other measures. The results of this meta-analysis should be interpreted with caution owing to the high heterogeneity between the analyzed studies.
