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.

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.

Effect of expiratory flow limitation on ventilation/perfusion mismatch and perioperative lung function during pneumoperitoneum and Trendelenburg position.
Laparoscopic surgery and Trendelenburg position may affect the respiratory function and alter the gas exchange. Further the reduction of the lung volumes may contribute to the development of expiratory flow limitation (EFL). The latter is associated with an increased risk of postoperative pulmonary complications. Our aim was to investigate the incidence of EFL and to evaluate its effect on pulmonary function and intraoperative V/Q mismatch. ⋯ Expiratory flow limitation is a common phenomenon during gynecological laparoscopic surgery associated with worsen gas exchange, increased V/Q mismatch and altered lung mechanics. Our study showed that patients experiencing EFL during surgery showed a higher risk for PPCs.

Randomized Controlled TrialAssociation Between Postoperative Delirium and Long-Term Subjective Cognitive Decline in Older Patients Undergoing Cardiac Surgery: A Secondary Analysis of the Minimizing Intensive Care Unit Neurological Dysfunction with Dexmedetomidine-Induced Sleep Trial.
This study aimed to evaluate whether a measure of subjective cognitive decline (SCD), the Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System (PROMIS) Applied Cognition-Abilities questionnaire, was associated with postoperative delirium. It was hypothesized that delirium during the surgical hospitalization would be associated with a decrease in subjective cognition up to 6 months after cardiac surgery. ⋯ In this cohort of older patients undergoing cardiac surgery, in-hospital delirium was associated with SCD up to 180 days after surgery. This finding suggested that measures of SCD may enable population-level insights into the burden of cognitive decline associated with postoperative delirium.
