Pectoral nerve block (PECS) is increasingly performed in breast surgery. The study evaluated the clinical impact of these blocks in the postoperative course. In this case-control study, patients undergoing breast surgery with 'enhanced recovery after surgery' pathways were divided into group 1 (57 patients) in whom PECS was performed before general anesthesia, and group 2 (57 patients) in whom only general anesthesia was effected.

- A study assessed how a feedback audit program impacted adherence to Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) protocols in elective colorectal surgery patients over a period from November 2018 to January 2020.
- Patients were divided into two groups: group 1 (before the first audit) and group 2 (after the first audit), with group 2 showing significant improvements such as lower anastomotic leakage rates and better intraoperative temperature management.
- The findings suggest that implementing an audit program can enhance clinical practices and compliance with ERAS protocols, leading to better patient outcomes.
Locoregional anesthetic techniques in hip fracture are significant in order to control pain, reduce postoperative opioid use, and perioperative adverse events. Pericapsular nerve group (PENG) block has been described and proved as an effective analgesic method for hip surgery as an alternative to other regional nerve blocks. The association of PENG and lateral femoral cutaneous nerve (LCFN) block can be performed to achieve skin and subcutaneous tissues analgesia or anesthesia.
