Article Synopsis
- The study explored the impact of intraoperative anesthetist-administered medications (IAAMs) on the total volume of IV fluid therapy during pancreaticoduodenectomy surgeries and their relation to postoperative outcomes.
- Results showed that IAAMs contributed to a 5.2% increase in total fluid volume administered, comparable to colloid volumes, and were significantly associated with postoperative complications.
- The findings suggest that IAAMs should be accounted for in future fluid management studies, as including them improves the prediction accuracy of complications following surgery.
Objective: We aimed to provide pain advice ('The treatment of pain is very important and be sure to tell the staff when you have pain') as an intervention and evaluate its effect upon patient satisfaction. The purpose of this pilot trial was to ensure the design and methods of a future trial are sound, practicable and feasible.
Method: We undertook a pilot, randomised, controlled, clinical intervention trial in a single ED.
