PURPOSE: Cerebrospinal fluid drainage (CSFD) is recommended during open or endovascular thoracic aortic repair. However, the incidence of CSFD complications is still high. Recently, CSF pressure has been kept high to avoid complications, but the efficacy of CSFD at higher pressures has not been confirmed. We hypothesize that CSFD at higher pressures is effective for preventing motor deficits. METHODS: This prospective observational study included 14 hospitals that are members of the Japanese Society of Cardiovascular Anesthesiologists...

PURPOSE: Generally, combined spinal-epidural anesthesia (CSEA) for labor analgesia is performed in the lateral or sitting position; however, only few studies have investigated the effect of maternal position on labor analgesia induction. We aimed to retrospectively assess the influence of maternal position on induction time and complications. METHODS: We retrospectively analyzed anesthetic and medical records regarding labor analgesia in 201 parturients treated between January 2019 and November 2019...

Pancreatic injury is considered an organ-related complication in patients with coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). However, it is unclear whether COVID-19 status affects pancreatic injury. This retrospective study aimed to determine whether COVID-19 affects the occurrence of pancreatic injuries. Consecutive patients diagnosed with sepsis admitted to the ICU between March 2020 and September 2021 were included. The primary endpoint was a pancreatic injury, which was defined as amylase or lipase levels > 3 times the upper limit of the normal range...

PURPOSE: Preoperative malnutrition is associated with postoperative complications, prolonged intensive care unit stay, and mortality, leading to functional disability after non-cardiac surgery. However, its effects on cardiac and thoracic aortic surgery outcomes remain unknown. We examined the effects of preoperative malnutrition on disability-free survival after surgery and assessed the perioperative 12-item World Health Organization Disability Assessment Schedule 2.0 (WHODAS2.0) score based on the preoperative nutritional status...

This practical guide has been developed to ensure safe and effective sedation performed in adult patients outside of the operating room, for instance in intensive care units and dental treatment rooms and in the field of palliative care. Sedation levels are classified based on level of consciousness, airway reflex, spontaneous ventilation, and cardiovascular function. Deep sedation induces loss of consciousness and protective reflexes, and can cause respiratory depression and pulmonary aspiration. Invasive medical procedures necessitating deep sedation include cardiac ablation, endoscopic submucosal dissection, and internal radiation therapy...

PURPOSE: The estimated continuous cardiac output (esCCO) system was recently developed as a noninvasive hemodynamic monitoring alternative to the thermodilution cardiac output (TDCO). However, the accuracy of continuous cardiac output measurements by the esCCO system compared to TDCO under different respiratory conditions remains unclear. This prospective study aimed to assess the clinical accuracy of the esCCO system by continuously measuring the esCCO and TDCO. METHODS: Forty patients who had undergone cardiac surgery with a pulmonary artery catheter were enrolled...

Although the recommended preoperative cessation period for sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors (SGLT2is) changed in 2020 (from 24 h to 3-4 days preoperatively) to reduce the risk of SGLT2i-associated perioperative ketoacidosis (SAPKA), the validity of the new recommendation has not been verified. Using case reports, we assessed the new recommendation effectiveness and extrapolated precipitating factors for SAPKA. We searched electronic databases up to June 1, 2022 to assess SAPKA (blood pH < 7...

The aim of this review was to update evidence for benefit of convalescent plasma transfusion (CPT) in patients with coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). Databases were searched for randomized controlled trials (RCT) comparing CPT plus standard treatment versus standard treatment only in adults with COVID-19. Primary outcome measures were mortality and need for invasive mechanical ventilation (IMV). Twenty-Six RCT involving 19,816 patients were included in meta-analysis for mortality. Quantitative synthesis showed no statistically significant benefit of adding CPT to standard treatment (RR = 0...

PURPOSE AND OBJECTIVES: Phantom limb pain (PLP) is a major cause of physical limitation and disability accounting for about 85% of amputated patients. Mirror therapy is used as a therapeutic modality for patients with phantom limb pain. Primary objective was to study the incidence of PLP at 6 months following below-knee amputation between the mirror therapy group and control group. METHODS: Patients posted for below-knee amputation surgery were randomized into two groups...

REVIEW

The incidence of postoperative delirium in patients undergoing cardiac surgery is very high and increases morbidity and mortality. The possibility of pharmacological means to reduce its incidence is very attractive. At present, there is still no clear demonstration that any drug can prevent postoperative delirium in these patients. The aim of this Bayesian network meta-analysis (NMA) was to evaluate whether there is evidence that a drug is effective in reducing the incidence of POD in cardiac surgical patients...

PURPOSE: Postoperative delirium (POD) occurs commonly in older adults, resulting in unfavorable outcomes. Several recent clinical studies have suggested that 5-hydroxytryptamine 3 (5-HT3 ) receptor antagonists can treat and prevent POD. In this retrospective study, the association between 5-HT3 receptor antagonists and POD was investigated in older adults who underwent hip fracture surgery. METHODS: The electronic medical records of older adults aged ≥ 65 years who underwent hip fracture surgery between January 2011 and June 2018 were reviewed retrospectively...

Paraplegia remains the most devastating complication following thoracoabdominal aortic surgery. Motor-evoked potential (MEP) monitoring has been widely used to assess intraoperative motor function. MEP amplitude is affected by various factors, including anesthetic agents and measurement time; however, there are no reports regarding MEP monitoring using remimazolam in thoracoabdominal aortic surgery. A 57-year-old woman underwent open repair of a thoracic descending aorta for a chronic dissecting aortic aneurysm under remimazolam and remifentanil anesthesia...

PURPOSE: This study aimed to evaluate the effect of different doses of epidural dexmedetomidine on reducing visceral traction reaction for cesarean section under epidural anesthesia. METHODS: Nulliparas were randomly allocated to receive epidural ropivacaine alone (group R) or in combination with dexmedetomidine 0.5 μg/kg (group RD0.5), 0.75 μg/kg (group RD0.75), and 1 μg/kg (group RD1) with 46 nulliparas in each group. The primary outcome was intraoperative visceral traction reaction (graded from 0 to 3, with 0 and 3, respectively, regarded as 'no discomfort in stomach or perineum; no nausea, vomiting or intestinal tympanites' and 'serious visceral pain, nausea and vomiting, intestinal tympanites')...

PURPOSE: Although it is important to recognize gender disparities in publishing to achieve gender diversity, women's authorship in Japan remains unclear. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate the percentage and analyze the trends of articles authored and published in anesthesiology journals by Japanese female authors. METHODS: The genders of the first and last authors affiliated with Japanese institutions were surveyed in the Journal of Anesthesia (JA) (1990, 1995, and 2000-2022) and 11 international anesthesiology journals (2010-2022)...

PURPOSE: Little evidence is available regarding bradypnea measured using continuous monitoring following cesarean section. We aimed to evaluate the rate of cumulative bradypnea time (total bradypnea time/total monitoring time) and its related factors in these parturients.

There are very few reports on the effects of benzodiazepines such as midazolam and diazepam on intraoperative visual-evoked potential (VEP), and there is no report on the effect of remimazolam at all. Five patients underwent neurosurgery using VEP monitoring for avoiding surgical injury to the optic nerve. In all cases, drug administration was based on actual body weight. General anesthesia was induced with propofol and remifentanil, and then maintained with propofol at target concentrations of 2.7-3.5 µg/ml for maintaining bispectral index (BIS) between 40 and 60...
