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.

Randomized Controlled Trial
Effects of ultrasound-guided erector spinae plane block on postoperative acute pain and chronic post-surgical pain in patients underwent video-assisted thoracoscopic lobectomy: a prospective randomized, controlled trial.
To investigate the effects of ultrasound-guided erector spinae plane block (ESPB) on acute and chronic post-surgical pain in patients underwent video-assisted thoracoscopic lobectomy. ⋯ Ultrasound-guided erector spinae plane block can significantly reduce acute post-surgical pain, can not reduce the incidence of chronic post-surgical pain, but can significantly reduce the severity of chronic pain in patients underwent video-assisted thoracoscopic lobectomy.

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
Comparison of preoxygenation efficiency measured by the oxygen reserve index between high-flow nasal oxygenation and facemask ventilation: a randomised controlled trial.
High-flow nasal oxygenation and the oxygen reserve index (ORI), which is a non-invasive and innovative modality that reflects the arterial oxygen content, are used in general anaesthesia. This study compares the preoxygenation efficiency (measured by the ORI) of high-flow nasal oxygenation and facemask ventilation during the induction process. ⋯ High-flow nasal oxygenation results in an oxygenation status similar to that provided by facemask ventilation during the induction process of general anaesthesia; therefore, high-flow nasal oxygenation is a feasible preoxygenation method.
