Multicenter Study
Critical incidents during anesthesia: prospective audit.
Critical incident reporting and analysis is one of the key components of patient safety in anesthesiology. The aim of this study was to determine the frequency and characteristics of critical incidents during anesthesia, main causes and factors involved, influence on patient outcomes, prevalence of incident reporting and further analysis. ⋯ NCT05435287, clinicaltrials.gov, 23/6/2022.

Randomized Controlled Trial
The effect of intraoperative transnasal humidified rapid-insufflation ventilatory exchange on emergence from general anesthesia in patients undergoing microlaryngeal surgery: a randomized controlled trial.
Transnasal humidified rapid-insufflation ventilatory exchange (THRIVE) has received extensive attention for its utility in tubeless anesthesia. Still, the effects of its carbon dioxide accumulation on emergence from anesthesia have not been reported. This randomized controlled trial aimed at exploring the impact of THRIVE combined with laryngeal mask (LM) on the quality of emergence in patients undergoing microlaryngeal surgery. ⋯ The THRIVE + LM strategy could accelerate emergence from anesthesia and reduce the incidence of cough without compromising oxygenation. However, these benefits did not convert to the QoR-40 and VHI-10 scores improvement.

Regional anesthesia appears to reduce cancer recurrence, but the optimal anesthesia modality for non-muscle invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC) were still under debate. Therefore, we sought to assess the effect of regional and GA only upon the recurrence and long-term prognosis of NMIBC through this meta-analysis. ⋯ RA, especially spinal anesthesia, may be effective in reducing the recurrence rate after transurethral resection of NMIBC. More prospective experimental and clinical studies are needed to validate our findings.

Randomized Controlled Trial
Effect of continuous spinal anesthesia on the hemodynamics of labor analgesia in hypertensive pregnant women: a comparative, randomized clinical trial.
To observe the changes in hemodynamic, stress and inflammatory responses during labor and their labor outcomes after continuous spinal anesthesia labor analgesia for hypertensive pregnant women, and to evaluate whether the continuous spinal anesthesia had any advantages compared to continuous epidural analgesia for hypertensive pregnant women and their newborns. ⋯ For pregnant women with hypertension during pregnancy, continuous spinal anesthesia labor analgesia has no significant effect on the final mode of delivery, but shows precise analgesic effect and stabilizes circulatory system, it is recommended to perform continuous spinal anesthesia early in labor for hypertensive pregnant women, which can effectively reduce the stress reaction.

Patients treated in the intensive care unit (ICU) may experience a reversal of day and night. The circadian rhythm in ICU patients can be disturbed. ⋯ The disturbance of the circadian rhythm of melatonin and cortisol secretion was associated with the development of delirium in ICU patients. Clinical staff should pay more attention to the importance of maintaining patients' normal circadian rhythms in the ICU.
