Meta Analysis
Is Lidocaine Patch Beneficial for Postoperative Pain: A Meta-analysis of raNdomized Clinical Trials.
The aim of this meta-analysis was to evaluate whether a lidocaine patch is beneficial for postoperative pain as an option for multimodal analgesia. ⋯ Lidocaine patches are beneficial for postoperative pain and can be used in multimodal analgesia to reduce opioid use, but there is no significant increase in patient satisfaction with pain control. More data are needed to support this conclusion due to the large heterogeneity in the present study.

Meta AnalysisComplications of Factor V Leiden in Adults Undergoing Noncardiac Surgical Procedures: A Systematic Review.
Factor V Leiden is the commonest hereditary prothrombotic allele, affecting 1% to 5% of the world's population. The objective of this study was to characterize the perioperative and postoperative outcomes of patients with Factor V Leiden compared to patients without a diagnosis of hereditary thrombophilia. This was a focused systematic review of studies including adult (>18 years) patients with Factor V Leiden (heterozygous or homozygous) undergoing noncardiac surgery. ⋯ Variable outcome definitions and durations of patient follow-up across different surgical procedures resulted in high study heterogeneity precluding the effective use of meta-analysis. Factor V Leiden status may confer additional risk for surgery-related adverse outcomes. Large, adequately powered studies are required to accurately estimate the degree of this risk by zygosity.

Effect of Topical Nonsteroidal Anti-inflammatory Drugs Around the Incision on Postoperative Pain in Transforaminal Lumbar Interbody Fusion Surgery: A Double-blind Randomized Controlled Trial.
How to minimize postoperative pain following spinal surgery has been a great challenge. We hypothesized that topical nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) around the incision could relieve postoperative pain following transforaminal lumbar interbody fusion (TLIF) surgery. ⋯ Transforaminal lumbar interbody fusion, postoperative pain, NSAID, topical NSAID, nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug, loxoprofen.

Randomized Controlled Trial
Individualized Positive End-expiratory Pressure on Postoperative Atelectasis in Patients with Obesity: A Randomized Controlled Clinical Trial.
Individualized positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) guided by dynamic compliance improves oxygenation and reduces postoperative atelectasis in nonobese patients. The authors hypothesized that dynamic compliance-guided PEEP could also reduce postoperative atelectasis in patients undergoing bariatric surgery. ⋯ Postoperative atelectasis was lower in patients undergoing laparoscopic bariatric surgery under dynamic compliance-guided PEEP versus PEEP of 8 cm H2O. Postoperative Pao2/Fio2 did not differ between the two groups.

Comparison between supra-inguinal fascia iliaca and pericapsular nerve group blocks on postoperative pain and functional recovery after total hip arthroplasty: A noninferiority randomised clinical trial.
Pain after a posterolateral approach for total hip arthroplasty (THA) may affect early functional recovery. Supra-inguinal fascia iliaca (SFIB) and pericapsular nerve group (PENG) blocks have been proposed as promising analgesia techniques. ⋯ Following a total hip arthroplasty via the posterolateral approach, a PENG block is noninferior to SFIB regarding postoperative pain control 6 h after surgery, and functional recovery.
