The Relationship between Pre-Anesthetic Analgesia and Nociception (ANI) and Propofol Injection Pain among Patients Receiving Remifentanil: A Prospective, Randomized, Controlled Study.

: The analgesia/nociception index (ANI) potentially monitors nociceptive status during anesthesia, but its link to preoperative pain sensitivity is unclear. We investigated the relationship between pre-anesthetic ANI scores and propofol injection pain (PIP) in patients receiving remifentanil. : This study included 124 male patients aged 19-60 undergoing general anesthesia (ASA class I or II).

Effect of Remimazolam on Pain Perception and Opioid-Induced Hyperalgesia in Patients Undergoing Laparoscopic Urologic Surgery-A Prospective, Randomized, Controlled Study.

: The effects of midazolam, a benzodiazepine, on pain perception are complex on both spinal and supraspinal levels. It is not yet known whether remimazolam clinically attenuates or worsens pain. The present study investigated the effect of intraoperative remimazolam on opioid-induced hyperalgesia (OIH) in patients undergoing general anesthesia.

Comparison of a Peripheral Nerve Block versus Spinal Anesthesia in Foot or Ankle Surgery: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis with a Trial Sequential Analysis.

This systematic review and meta-analysis with trial sequential analysis (TSA) aimed to compare perioperative outcomes of peripheral nerve blocks (PNBs) and spinal anesthesia (SA) in elective foot and ankle surgery. The study protocol was registered in PROSPERO (CRD42021229597). Researchers independently searched PubMed, EMBASE, and the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials for relevant randomized controlled trials (RCTs).

The Effect of Remimazolam Compared to Sevoflurane on Postoperative Shivering in Patients Undergoing Laparoscopic Gynecologic Surgery under General Anesthesia: A Prospective Randomized Controlled Trial.

Anesthesia maintenance agents affect the incidence of postoperative shivering (PS) after general anesthesia. This study compared the effects of remimazolam with sevoflurane on PS in patients undergoing laparoscopic gynecologic surgery under general anesthesia. : Seventy-four patients were allocated into one of two groups.
