Hemoadsorption during cardiopulmonary bypass to absorb plasma-free hemoglobin in patients with acute type a aortic dissection: A randomized controlled trial.

Aims: This study aimed to investigate the effect of hemoadsorption (HA) on plasma-free hemoglobin (pfHb) levels during cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) and the clinical outcomes in patients with acute type A aortic dissection (ATAAD).

Methods: In this single-center randomized trial, patients were assigned to either a group using the HA380 device or a control group without it. The primary outcome was changes in pfHb levels during CPB and within the first 48 hours after surgery.

Intravenous Bolus of Dexmedetomidine for Treatment of Severe Shivering After Caesarean Delivery Under Combined Spinal-Epidural Anaesthesia: A Randomized Dose-Response Study.

Purpose: Shivering occurs frequently after caesarean delivery. The present study aimed to investigate the ED50 and ED95 of an intravenous (i.v.

Effect of Remimazolam Supplementation on Propofol Requirements During Hysteroscopy: A Double-Blind, Dose-Response Study.

Background: Propofol is commonly used for procedural sedation but may increase side effects in a dose-dependent manner. Remimazolam, an ultrashort-acting benzodiazepine, has been approved for procedural sedation but may delay awakening. This study tested the hypothesis that remimazolam as a supplement reduces effect-site propofol concentration (Ce prop ) required to suppress response to cervical dilation in patients undergoing hysteroscopy.

A comparative study of three concentrations of intravenous nalbuphine combined with hydromorphone for post-cesarean delivery analgesia.

Background: Nalbuphine has been suggested to be used for post-cesarean section (CS) intravenous analgesia. However, ideal concentration of nalbuphine for such analgesia remains unclear. The present study was conducted to explore an ideal concentration of nalbuphine for post-CS intravenous analgesia by evaluating the analgesic effects and side-effects of three different concentrations of nalbuphine combined with hydromorphone for post-CS intravenous analgesia in healthy parturients.
