A protocol for an emergency front-of-neck airway registry in the United Kingdom
Background: A ‘cannot intubate, cannot oxygenate’ crisis is a rare but life-threatening airway emergency, with an emergency front-of-neck airway (eFONA) required to establish or maintain oxygenation. Episodes of eFONA are rare, with the UK-wide Fourth National Audit Project from the Royal College…

Association of postoperative haemoglobin with adverse outcomes in patients undergoing cardiac surgery: a retrospective single centre cohort study
Background: Preoperative anaemia is an important risk factor for adverse outcomes in cardiac surgery, however data on postoperative anaemia is sparse. The aim of this study is to characterise the association of postoperative haemoglobin with 30-day mortality and morbidity after cardiac surgery…

The involvement of anaesthetists and other healthcare professionals with surgeons in shared decision-making for adult patients contemplating surgery: a systematic review and narrative analysis
Background: Recognising the medical and surgical complexity of certain patient populations, perioperative pathways are evolving to incorporate multidisciplinary team perspectives, alongside surgeons, in shared decision-making. We aimed to synthesise the evidence base for multidisciplinary team…

Incidence and predictors of postoperative recall of propofol injection pain: a prospective observational cohort pilot study
Background: Propofol injection pain is common during i.v. induction and is often accompanied by nociceptive behaviours. Whether this pain is subsequently remembered by patients remains poorly characterised. We aimed to estimate the incidence of postoperative day 1 (POD#1) recall of propofol…

Critical Events in Anaesthetised Kids Undergoing Tracheal Intubation (CRICKET)—study protocol for an international multicentre prospective observational study
Background: Critical Events in Anaesthetised Kids undergoing Tracheal Intubation (CRICKET) is a prospective, international multicentre observational study with the objective of capturing, assessing, and analysing critical events associated with tracheal intubation in children. Methods: CRICKET…

Opioid consumption during hospitalisation among robotic-assisted, computer-assisted, and manual total hip arthroplasty: a retrospective cohort study
Background: We examined total opioid consumption during hospitalisation across manual (MA-THA), computer-assisted (CA-THA), and robotic-assisted (RA-THA) total hip arthroplasty. Methods: This retrospective cohort study (2016–2023, Premier Healthcare database) of patients undergoing unilateral…

General anaesthesia versus monitored anaesthesia care and postoperative outcome in patients with elevated right ventricular systolic pressure undergoing low-risk surgical procedures: a retrospective single-centre cohort study
Background: Pulmonary hypertension, often indicated before surgery by elevated right ventricular systolic pressure (RVSP) on echocardiography, is associated with increased perioperative risk. For low-risk procedures in which either general anaesthesia or monitored anaesthesia care may be selected…

Selective impairment of auditory discrimination in critically ill patients with delirium: a prospective electroencephalographic observational study
Background: Delirium in the ICU is a major and potentially modifiable risk factor for subsequent neurocognitive decline. However, the cerebral dysfunctions underlying its behavioural manifestations remain poorly understood, limiting targeted clinical management. These dysfunctions may reflect…

Procalcitonin and interleukin-6 to diagnose infection in cardiac surgery patients with hyperinflammation: a two-centre, prospective cross-sectional study
Background: Inflammation after cardiac surgery complicates infection diagnosis. The diagnostic value of procalcitonin (PCT) in patients with suspected infection remains unclear. We studied the diagnostic performance of PCT in elective cardiac surgery patients suspected of early-onset infection…

The prevalence of anaemia in children presenting for elective surgical and diagnostic procedures requiring sedation or general anaesthesia at two tertiary hospitals in Johannesburg
Background: Paediatric anaemia is a major public health problem affecting millions of children globally, with a high prevalence in low- and middle-income countries. There is limited data on the prevalence of preoperative anaemia in healthy paediatric surgical patients presenting for routine…

Effect of exercise prehabilitation on days alive and out of hospital after cardiac surgery: a secondary analysis of the randomised PRE-habilitation for improving QUality of recovery after ELective cardiac surgery trial
Background: Postoperative healthcare utilisation and long-term survival are rarely evaluated after prehabilitation, limiting understanding of its sustained benefits. We investigated whether exercise-based prehabilitation improves percent days alive and out of hospital, a composite measure…

Emerging evidence for preoperative anaemia screening and blood health optimisation for paediatric surgical patients
Summary: Preoperative anaemia is common in children presenting for elective surgery, including those without comorbidity, particularly in low- and middle-income settings. This editorial discusses emerging evidence on the prevalence of paediatric preoperative anaemia and considers the implications…

Sugammadex, neostigmine, and postoperative pulmonary complications: protocol of the SNaPP multicentre randomised controlled trial
Background: Sugammadex, a novel cyclodextrin reversal agent, reduces the incidence of residual neuromuscular block compared with neostigmine and was associated with fewer postoperative pulmonary complications in a systematic review of small randomised trials. However, evidence from a large RCT is…

Fasting-induced hypoglycaemia in anaesthetised paediatric patients (FIGS): protocol of an opt-out approach to consent for a multicentre cohort study measuring glycaemia and ketonaemia
Background: Hypoglycaemia is a potentially a serious complication of the iatrogenic fasting required to deliver safe anaesthesia. Children may be at a higher risk because of their metabolic immaturity. Methods: This is a prospective multi-centre cohort study recruiting children fasting before a…

Intraoperative ventilation strategies during thoracic surgery to reduce the perioperative inflammatory response: a narrative review from
Summary: General thoracic surgery encompasses a range of procedures requiring one-lung ventilation. This technique is essential for surgical exposure but is associated with significant physiological changes that contribute to both local and systemic inflammatory responses from tissue injury. This…

Assessing ultraviolet-C light-emitting diode disinfection of disposable video laryngoscope blades: a sustainable approach through an integrated microbiological, environmental, economic, and regulatory evaluationEditor’s key points
Background: The shift from reusable to single-use anaesthesia devices, such as laryngoscope blades, is increasingly questioned because of the financial and environmental costs of disposables. Validated disinfection methods enabling safe reuse could provide clinical, economic, and sustainability…
