The primary objective of this pilot study was to explore study feasibility (recruitment and dropout rates) for future large-scale randomized controlled trial (RCT) to test the hypothesis that intraoperative Dexmed reduced recurrence-free survival (RFS) and overall survival (OS) in patients after breast cancer surgery.</p><h3>Methods</h3><p>Interviews with patients were performed during the anesthetic preoperative visit for informed consent. Adult females scheduled for a mastectomy due to primary breast cancer were 1:1 randomised to saline (Group Control) or Dexmed (Group Dexmed) treatment groups.

We searched MEDLINE, Embase and PubMed databases from 1st January 2018 till 15th September 2022. We primarily reviewed randomized control trials and systematic reviews with or without meta-analyses where IV ketamine was used as part of an anesthetic regimen perioperatively for general or regional anesthesia. We included studies with both pediatric and/or adult participants. We did not examine the quality of the randomized controlled trials (RCTs) included in our review. Perioperative IV ketamine consistently reduced postoperative opioid requirement especially in the early postoperative period, however, the duration of this effect was variable in different surgeries and patient populations. This effect was seen in breast, obstetric, bariatric, and orthopedic surgeries. The effect was minimal in pediatric and thoracic surgeries. It has a valuable role in multi-modal analgesic regimen, especially in orthopedic and spine procedures. Considerable heterogeneity was noted with regards to the dosage of IV ketamine. Bolus doses ranged from 0.15 to 1 mg·kg⁻¹ and infusion doses ranged from 2 to 5 ug·kg⁻¹·min⁻¹. Its role in prevention of chronic post-surgical pain is still under investigation. Intravenous ketamine also reduced postoperative depressive symptoms in specific patient populations. It also reduced shivering associated with spinal anesthesia. It has a potential role in prevention of emergence agitation and postoperative delirium. In conclusion, IV ketamine has a versatile range of beneficial clinical effects in perioperative practice. The most widely studied are its analgesic effects which are of variable intensity amongst different surgical specialties and subset of patients. Despite its long history of use, fresh uses of IV ketamine continue to be reported. More trials are needed to better understand ideal dosing and patient subsets that will benefit most from these effects.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":100082,"journal":{"name":"Anesthesiology and Perioperative Science","volume":"1 4","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-11-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://link.springer.com/content/pdf/10.1007/s44254-023-00035-1.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142413592","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

PPE involves systematic identification of patient, surgical, and anesthesia-related risk factors.

Surgical urgency, type, duration, approach of the surgical procedure, and comorbidities influence PPC rates, with cardiac, thoracic, abdominal, and vascular surgeries being particularly vulnerable.</p><p>Patient-related risk factors encompass non-pulmonary and pulmonary factors. Aging populations increase surgical demand, with advanced age and frailty predicting higher morbidity and mortality risks.

This study selected 2196 articles from the literature. focusing on AI-related research within the fields of ICU and Anesthesia, which has increased exponentially over the past decade. Among them, the USA ranked first with 634 publications and had close international cooperation. Harvard Medical School was the most productive institution. In terms of publications, <i>Scientific Reports</i> (impact factor (IF) 4.996) had the most, while <i>Critical Care Medicine</i> (IF 9.296) had the most citations. According to numerous references, researchers may focus on the following research hotspots: “Early Warning Scores”, “Covid-19″, “Sepsis” and “Neural Networks”. “Procalcitonin” and “Convolutional Neural Networks” were the hottest burst keywords. The potential applications of AI in the fields of ICU and Anesthesia have garnered significant attention from scholars, prompting an increase in research endeavors.
