Magnitude and associated factors of intraoperative cardiac complications among geriatric patients who undergo non-cardiac surgery at public hospitals in the southern region of Ethiopia: a multi-center cross-sectional study in 2022/2023.

Background: Intraoperative cardiac complications are a common cause of morbidity and mortality in non-cardiac surgery. The risk of these complications increased with the average age increasing from 65. In a resource-limited setting, including our study area, the magnitude and associated factors of intraoperative cardiac complications have not been adequately investigated.

Evidence-based practical guideline for procedural pain management and sedation for burn pediatrics patients undergoing wound care procedures.

Background: Almost all children with burns experience pain as a result of a complex pathophysiologic process that is usually untreated, and up to 38% of all pediatric burn victims develop anxiety disorders due to pain after hospital admission. Hence, it is important to manage pain and anxiety in the care of burn victim children. The goal of this review was to develop an evidence-based guideline for procedural pain management and sedation for burned children undergoing wound care procedures.
