Randomized Controlled TrialAnesthetic-sparing effect of dexmedetomidine during total intravenous anesthesia for children undergoing dental surgery: A randomized controlled trial.
Dexmedetomidine, an α2-adrenergic agonist, reduces propofol and remifentanil requirements when used as an adjunct to total intravenous anesthesia in adults, but studies in a pediatric population are sparse. This study investigates the magnitude of dose-sparing effects of a postinduction dexmedetomidine bolus on propofol and remifentanil requirements during pediatric surgery. ⋯ Dexmedetomidine 1 mcg/kg reduced the propofol and remifentanil requirements during maintenance of anesthesia in children when administered as a postinduction bolus.

Randomized Controlled Trial
Effect of Epidural Volume Extension Using Low-Dose Sufentanil Combined with Low-Concentration Ropivacaine on Visceral Pain During Cesarean Sections: A Randomized Trial.
Visceral pain is common in cesarean sections conducted under combined spinal-epidural anesthesia (CSE). Epidural volume extension (EVE) is a technique for enhancing the effect of intrathecal blocks by inducing epidural fluid boluses in the CSE. Whether EVE that uses different drugs can reduce visceral pain during cesarean sections is rarely studied. ⋯ EVE at 15 minutes after spinal anesthesia with a 10 mL combination of low-dose sufentanil (10 mu-g) and low-concentration (0.15%) ropivacaine can effectively reduce the incidence and severity of visceral pain in cesarean sections under CSE. At the same time, using EVE in this way can reduce postoperative opioid consumption and improve intraoperative satisfaction.

Randomized Controlled Trial Comparative Study
Postoperative quality of recovery comparison between ciprofol and propofol in total intravenous anesthesia for elderly patients undergoing laparoscopic major abdominal surgery: A randomized, controlled, double-blind, non-inferiority trial.
We conducted a non-inferiority study to assess the postoperative quality of recovery (QoR) in elderly patients receiving ciprofol or propofol total intravenous anesthersia(TIVA)after elective laparoscopic major abdominal surgery, with QoR-15 scores as the main measure. ⋯ Ciprofol is not inferior to propofol in QoR. Ciprofol can be suitably administered to elderly patients undergoing elective laparoscopic major abdominal surgery.

Recovery quality of transversus abdominis plane block with liposomal bupivacaine after cesarean delivery: A randomized trial.
This study aimed to investigate the effect of liposomal bupivacaine in transversus abdominis plane block (TAP) on recovery quality after cesarean delivery. ⋯ TAP block using either liposomal bupivacaine or a mixture of plain bupivacaine and liposomal bupivacaine provided superior quality of recovery at 24 h after cesarean delivery compared to using plain bupivacaine alone.

Randomized Controlled Trial Comparative Study
Comparison of the efficacy and safety of ciprofol and propofol for ERCP anesthesia in older patients: A single-center randomized controlled clinical study.
Ciprofol is a novel agonist at the gamma-aminobutyric acid-A (GABAA) receptor, exhibiting better cardiovascular stability and rapid recovery. The objective of this study was to compare the efficacy and safety of ciprofol and propofol for endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) anesthesia in older patients. ⋯ Compared with propofol, ciprofol exhibited a comparable level of sedation in older patients undergoing ERCP, and recovery was safe and rapid with less injection pain.
