Previous studies have established that bullying is a pervasive problem in healthcare. However, most investigations of bullying in anaesthesia use self-labelled survey questions in which respondents' subjective perceptions of bullying are central in defining prevalence. This study applied the validated revised Negative Acts Questionnaire (NAQ-r) for a more objective assessment of bullying prevalence and types of negative behaviours experienced by anaesthesia trainees in Australia and New Zealand.An online questionnaire was distributed by the Australian and New Zealand College of Anaesthetists (ANZCA) Clinical Trials Network to 990 randomly selected ANZCA trainees...

The practice of anaesthetists relating to the administration of intraoperative oxygen has not been previously quantified in Australia and New Zealand. The optimal regimen of intraoperative oxygen administration to patients undergoing surgery under general anaesthesia is not known, and international recommendations for oxygen therapy are contradictory; the World Health Organization (WHO) recommend administering an intraoperative fraction of inspired oxygen of at least 0.8, while the World Federation of Societies of Anaesthesiologists, British Thoracic Society, and Thoracic Society of Australia and New Zealand recommend a more restrictive approach...

A bag-valve-mask (BVM) is a portable handheld medical device commonly used in airway management and manual ventilation. Outside of the operating theatre, BVM devices are often used to pre-oxygenate spontaneously breathing patients before intubation to reduce the risk of hypoxaemia. Pre-oxygenation is considered adequate when the end-tidal expiratory fraction of oxygen is greater than 0.85. There are reports that some BVM devices fail to deliver a satisfactory inspired oxygen (FiO2 ) in spontaneously breathing patients due to variability in design...

Anaesthetic agents have various financial and environmental impacts. Climate change is one of the biggest threats to human health, and anaesthetic gases contribute to global heating by acting as greenhouse gases. The primary aim of this study was to quantify the financial and environmental impacts of anaesthesia maintenance agents used during surgery in an Australian university teaching hospital. The volume of desflurane, sevoflurane, isoflurane and propofol purchased by a university teaching hospital between 2010 and 2020 was analysed and described in terms of financial and environmental impact...

Healthcare contributes to environmental harm. Trainee-led Research and Audit in Anaesthesia for Sustainable Healthcare (TRA2 SH) is an Australasian network focused on sustainable anaesthesia practice. TRA2 SH hypothesised that trainee-led audits alongside education presented on a scheduled national day, called Operation Clean Up, can improve engagement with sustainability initiatives. This paper aims to describe the first two years of Operation Clean Up in terms of goals, achievements and data collected so far...

Obstetric surgical suites differ from most inpatient surgical suites, serving one specialty, and often small. We evaluated long-term capacity planning for these operating rooms. The retrospective cohort study included all caesarean births in three operating rooms over 28 years, 1994 through 2021, plus all other obstetric procedures over the latter 19 years. We calculated the obstetric anaesthesia activity index, 0.5 × neuraxial labour analgesia placement + 1.0 × caesarean births...

Given the severity of the consequences of operating room fires, it is recommended that every anaesthesiologist master fire safety protocols and periodically participate in operating room fire drills. The aim of the present study was to evaluate skill retention one year after an airway fire training programme. Anaesthesiology residents were evaluated using an airway fire simulation-based scenario one year after an educational programme that included a one-h long problem-based learning session, a simulation-based airway fire drill with debriefing, and a formal group discussion...

More than 300 million surgeries are performed worldwide annually. Established perioperative centres in the UK, USA and Australia have demonstrated the impact of improving perioperative care in reducing costs, increasing patient satisfaction and improving population health. Likewise, the surgical burden of care in Asia is increasing, but with sociocultural, economic and epigenetic differences compared to the west. As Singapore's largest hospital, the Singapore General Hospital pre-admission perioperative clinic sees about 20,000 patients annually...

Rocuronium bromide is a neuromuscular blocker in widespread use in anaesthesia, emergency and intensive care. Reports of reduced efficacy of a new different formulation of rocuronium bromide were submitted to Medsafe, the New Zealand Medicines and Medical Devices Safety Authority, in 2020. Given the requirement for rapid and predictable paralysis for patient safety the efficacy of the two available formulations of rocuronium bromide was investigated in an animal model. After ethics committee approval, 19 rats were anaesthetised and paralysis, defined as loss of tibialis anterior flexion on direct electrical stimulation of the sciatic nerve, was assessed by mechanomyography in response to ED90 doses of rocuronium...

Elizabeth T Tran, Kwok M Ho
The Royal College of Anaesthetists was commissioned by the United Kingdom Health Quality Partnership to conduct the National Emergency Laparotomy Audit of England and Wales (NELA), to compare outcomes of patients undergoing emergency laparotomy in order to promote quality improvement. Prior to 2016 there were minimal data for emergency laparotomy patients in Australia. The aim of this cohort study was to assess the utility and applicability of the NELA model in a tertiary centre in Western Australia. NELA-related data of patients who underwent emergency laparotomy, between June 2018 and May 2020, were merged with other administrative databases and clinical records...
