Introduction And Importance: Arytenoid dislocation, typically manifested as hoarseness and coughing when drinking, is a rare perioperative scenario, with an incidence rate of 0.009 %-0.097 % and endotracheal intubation under general anesthesia being the most common cause.

Article Synopsis
  • Inadequate postoperative pain management can hinder patient recovery and create significant health and economic issues, prompting the need for better systems like the Artificial Intelligent Patient-Controlled Analgesia (Ai-PCA) to help anesthesiologists assess patient pain levels effectively.* -
  • This study focused on evaluating the knowledge, attitude, and practice (KAP) of anesthesiologists regarding Ai-PCA in Jiangsu Province, China, using a questionnaire distributed to 396 professionals working in tertiary hospitals.* -
  • Results showed that while most participants (78%) had good knowledge and positive attitudes towards Ai-PCA, only 20.5% demonstrated good practical application, with training in Ai-PCA significantly boosting their knowledge and practice

Purpose: Artificial intelligence (AI) is increasingly influencing various medical fields, including anesthesiology. The Introduction of artificial intelligent patient-controlled analgesia (Ai-PCA) has been seen as a significant advancement in pain management. However, the adoption and practical application of Ai-PCA by medical staff, particularly in anesthesia and thoracic surgery, have not been extensively studied.

Background: Tracheal injury is a rare but potentially serious acute complication of endotracheal intubation. Very few cases of tracheal injury associated with coagulation abnormalities have been reported in the literature. We present a rare case of a patient presenting with tracheal injury in combination with coagulation abnormalities following thyroidectomy.

Objective: Endothelial glycocalyx (EG) maintains vascular homeostasis and is destroyed after one-lung ventilation (OLV)-induced lung injury. Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) are critically involved in various lung injuries. This study aimed to investigate the role and regulatory mechanism of KCNQ1 overlapping transcript 1 (KCNQ1OT1) in OLV-induced lung injury and LPS-induced type II alveolar epithelial cell (AECII) apoptosis.

Background: Mediastinal tumors pose a challenging respiratory and circulatory management during anesthesia procedures, there is a risk of circulatory collapse or complete airway obstruction, which in severe cases can lead to cardiac arrest. We reported a case of anesthetic management using a bronchial blocker placed outside the tracheal tube. In this case report, the patient's trachea was so severely compressed that the airway was extremely narrow, only 4 mm at its narrowest point.

Introduction And Importance: Intratracheal tumors account for approximately 0.2 % of respiratory tumors, including primary and secondary tumors. Secondary tumors of the upper trachea are most commonly derived from advanced thyroid cancer.

Objectives: To investigate the effects of press needle therapy on postoperative analgesia and other relevant complications in patients undergoing thoracoscopic pulmonary resection.

Design: randomized, single-blind, controlled trial SETTING: Teaching hospitals affiliated with universities.

Interventions: Eighty-six patients were randomized into: the Acu group (press-needle group) and the control group MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Pain levels 24, 48, and three months after surgery were measured using the numeric rating scale (NRS).
