The development of the device enabled a more precise observation than before and laryngeal or tracheal foreign bodies could be removed better and more easily. The new instrumental development and examination technique he described met with rapid approval and great interest in specialist circles. Shortly afterwards the first publications on orotracheal intubation for anesthesia appeared in scientific journals, that should also be possible with the aid of Kirstein's autoscope. Although he never propagated this himself, it was also possible to perform these under visualization using a tongue depressor equipped with a light, which he had developed a short time later.

ICU survivorship is characterized by long-term impairments of cognition, mental health, and physical health. Since 2012, these impairments have been summarized with the umbrella term Post-Intensive Care Syndrome (PICS). Mental health impairments frequently entail new are aggravated symptoms of depression, anxiety, and posttraumatic stress disorder. Beyond impairments in the three PICS domains, critical illness survivors frequently suffer from chronic pain, dysphagia, and nutritional deficiencies. Furthermore, they have a higher risk for osteoporosis, bone fractures, and diabetes mellitus. Taken together, these sequelae reduce their health-related quality of life. Additionally, ICU survivors are challenged by social problems such as isolation, economic problems such as treatment costs and lost earnings, and return to previous employment. Yet, patients and caregivers have described post-ICU care as inadequate and fragmented. ICU follow-up clinics could improve post-ICU care, but there is insufficient evidence for their effectiveness. Thus far, large high-quality trials with multicomponent and interdisciplinary post-ICU interventions have mostly failed to improve patient outcomes. Hence, preventing PICS and minimizing risk factors by optimizing ICU care is crucial, e.g. by implementing the ABCDE bundle. Future studies need to identify effective components of post-ICU recovery interventions and determine which patient populations may benefit most from ICU recovery services.</p>","PeriodicalId":72805,"journal":{"name":"Die Anaesthesiologie","volume":" ","pages":"3-14"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142831138","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}

The eGENA was published by the German Society of Anesthesiology and has been implemented in the emergency management of the anesthesiological team of the clinic in Potsdam, Germany.</p><p><strong>Objective: </strong>The primary endpoint was to observe the influence of eGENA on the anesthesiological emergency management on the subjective feeling of assurance as well as on quality of treatment and, therefore, patient safety.</p><p><strong>Material and methods: </strong>All employees in the anesthesia department (nursing staff and physicians) took part in the initial implementation of eGENA. The implementation phase covered crew resource management (CRM) principles and eGENA use as well as 10 case studies that were discussed with help from eGENA. Afterwards in a randomized controlled simulation study, realistic case studies were processed and evaluated. In this, 18 cases were handled by 9 groups with 4 persons in each group. Treatment during these simulations was assessed using a predetermined 20-point evaluation form and 10 resuscitation-related and 10 case-related points were awarded. Significance tests were carried out using the Wilcoxon-test (significance level p < 0.05) and two evaluations were completed by the attendees at the beginning and the end of the eGENA implementation process.</p><p><strong>Results: </strong>Scenarios 1 and 2 showed comparable overall scores (14.9 vs. 16.3 points out of 20, not significant). Higher case-associated scores (7.6 vs. 5.6 out of 10, p = 0.03) and higher total scores were achieved with the help of eGENA (16.9 vs. 14.3 out of 20, p = 0.02). Resuscitation-associated scores did not differ significantly (9.3 vs. 8.8 of 10, p = 0.1). During eGENA use for cases the execution of the algorithm-based resuscitation measures was not delayed or accelerated. With eGENA, however, differential diagnoses were discussed significantly more frequently and expanded treatment and diagnostic measures were implemented. During simulation cases eGENA was mainly used by physicians. The initially very positive responses of the evaluations toned down over time. Planned eGENA use for self-study was less frequent (p = 0.006) and there was less approval of the quality of treatment by eGENA than in the first survey (p = 0.002). The cooperation between doctors and nurses in emergency treatment showed an improvement (p < 0.001). The questions about self-assessed safety in emergency treatment on a scale from 0 to 10 showed higher values in all categories at the second survey (except only circulatory emergencies and 'other' emergencies). The respondents were more likely to be involved in emergency treatment at the second time of the survey (p = 0.03) after a median of 20 months.</p><p><strong>Disc","PeriodicalId":72805,"journal":{"name":"Die Anaesthesiologie","volume":" ","pages":"15-23"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142967593","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}
