Despite documented risks and mortality rates associated with pediatric procedural sedation and analgesia (PPSA) outside the operating room (OR), there is a pressing need for improvements in safety infrastructure. Comparative analysis with international practices reveals that anesthesiologists' involvement is associated with fewer adverse events and improved outcomes. However, lower reimbursement rate for sedation and anesthesia workforce shortage, and decentralized health resources are contributing factors to limit their participation in PPSA outside the OR in Japan. Enhancing the involvement of anesthesiologists through the public health frameworks such as \"high-risk approach\" and \"population approach\" can contribute to improvement of the safety and quality of PPSA. By tackling these challenges and implementing effective solutions, anesthesiologists can play a key role in ensuring safer and more effective PPSA outside the OR. Future challenges include enhancing training, addressing reduced clinical exposure due to work style reform, and developing effective educational systems.

A total of 108 patients participated in the study, with 43 assigned to Group 1(FAR < 0.102) and 65 to Group 2(FAR ≥ 0.102).</p><p><strong>Results: </strong>A significant difference was found in the risk of death within 3-months between patients with high and low FAR scores(p = 0.018). Patients with higher FAR scores were more likely to die within 3 months. A significantly positive association was observed between the FAR and AACCI score, with the AACCI score of Group2 being significantly higher than that of Group 1(p = 0.029). The lengths of hospital(p = 0.044) and ICU(p = 0.013) stay were significantly higher in Group2 than in Group1.</p><p><strong>Conclusion: </strong>Preoperative FAR, which is an inexpensive and readily available test, is a promising index for predicting mortality and complications in patients with hip fracture.</p>","PeriodicalId":14997,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Anesthesia","volume":" ","pages":"205-214"},"PeriodicalIF":2.8,"publicationDate":"2025-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142828610","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
