The pressure-controlled ventilation volume-guaranteed mode regulates the inspiratory pressure limits to achieve a set tidal volume with the lowest airway pressure. We hypothesised that pressure-controlled ventilation volume-guaranteed mode would result in improved pulmonary mechanics, gas exchange and lower incidence of atelectasis than ventilation volume-guaranteed mode in patients undergoing corrective surgery for scoliosis in the prone position.Methods: Patients of thoracolumbar scoliosis scheduled for posterior spinal fusion surgery were randomly allocated to the ventilation volume-guaranteed (n = 24) or pressure-controlled ventilation volume-guaranteed group (n = 27). As primary endpoints, peak airway pressure (Ppeak), dynamic lung compliance (Cdyn) and arterial blood gas parameters were evaluated at predefined time points. Screening for atelectasis was done by lung ultrasonography on intensive care unit arrival.Results: Pressure-controlled ventilation volume-guaranteed resulted in significantly reduced Ppeak and Cdyn as well as lower PaCO2 and arterial to end-tidal carbon dioxide gradient. Both the groups were comparable with regard to oxygenation, hemodynamic variables and total lung ultrasound scores.Conclusion: Pressure-controlled ventilation volume-guaranteed confers significant advantages like improved airway mechanics and lower dead space ventilation in patients undergoing corrective surgery for scoliosis.","PeriodicalId":35481,"journal":{"name":"Journal of perioperative practice","volume":" ","pages":"267-274"},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2026-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144294995","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This systematic review and meta-analysis compares the efficacy of low-molecular-weight heparin with direct oral anticoagulants in preventing venous thromboembolism in major abdominopelvic surgeries.Methods: This systematic review was conducted according to a predefined protocol registered in PROSPERO (ID: 1307005) and is reported in accordance with the PRISMA 2020 statement. A search was conducted in the Cochrane Library, PubMed Central/Medline, and Google Scholar from 2000 until September 2024.

There was no significant difference in incidence of venous thromboembolism (Risked Ratio = 1.77, p = 0.08), major bleeding events (RR = 0.60, p = 0.51), or pulmonary embolism incidence (Risked Ratio = 3.38, p = 0.17) among the seven included studies.

A 35-year-old woman without any previous known medical comorbidities and with a prior caesarean section for undiagnosed placenta percreta was diagnosed with Ogilvie syndrome during the current pregnancy. Postoperatively, the patient indicated severe ileus accompanied by abdominal pain and fever, which did not improve. Within the first 24 h after the indications emerged, an interdisciplinary discussion for diagnostic confirmation was conducted, involving anaesthesia, digestive surgery, and obstetrics. Conservative management, pharmacology, and surgical decompression were performed to manage the complications. With early detection, integrated therapy, and close monitoring, Ogilvie syndrome in this patient was successfully resolved, and severe complications were prevented. The patient was subsequently discharged in stable condition.","PeriodicalId":35481,"journal":{"name":"Journal of perioperative practice","volume":" ","pages":"17504589261440440"},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2026-04-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147783641","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Studies described similar competency domains, related to perioperative-specific technical skills and knowledge, and individual non-technical skills that enabled effective teamwork and collaboration. The Perceived Perioperative Competence Scale-Revised (PPCS-R) was the most frequently used assessment tool.
