Virtual reality for reduction of intraprocedural pharmacological sedation and analgesia in adult patients: A systematic review and meta-analysis.
Anaesth Crit Care Pain Med

Department of Anesthesiology and Pain Medicine, Maisonneuve-Rosemont Hospital, Montréal, QC, Canada; Université de Montréal, Montréal, QC, Canada; Maisonneuve-Rosemont Hospital Research Center, Montreal, QC, Canada.
Background: Pharmacological sedation and analgesia are used to alleviate discomfort during awake medical procedures but can cause adverse effects like apnea and hypoxemia, increasing the need for airway management and prolonging recovery. Virtual reality (VR) has emerged as a non-pharmacological intervention to reduce the need for procedural sedatives and analgesics.
Methods: A systematic review and meta-analysis were conducted, assessing the impact of VR immersion on intraprocedural sedation and analgesia usage in adults (≥ 18 years).
Effectiveness of Virtual Reality in Reducing Pain and Stress During Office Hysteroscopy: A Randomized Controlled Trial.

Office hysteroscopy (OH) offers a "see and treat" strategy, enabling most gynecological conditions to be addressed outside the operating room without anesthesia. Despite its convenience, the associated pain and stress remain significant barriers to its widespread success among women. Both pharmacological and non-pharmacological interventions have been explored to mitigate these challenges, albeit with mixed outcomes.

Moderate to severe pain after cardiac surgery is relatively common, which increases the risk of postoperative cardiopulmonary complications and delays hospital discharge. Opioids have been useful agents for postoperative pain control after cardiac surgery, but are associated with serious adverse effects. As a result, multimodal analgesia has been adopted widely to decrease reliance on opioids for treating postoperative pain, reduce opioid-related adverse effects, and promote early recovery.

Acute pain service was consulted for acute pain management in a 40-year-old male who had sustained multiple bilateral rib fractures following a fall injury. In addition to the rib fractures, the patient had also experienced injuries to his lungs and spinal column, both of which required surgeries. Considering the significant nature of pain due to his rib fractures, a multimodal pain management approach that included both pharmacological and non-pharmacological strategies was utilized.

Objective: To systematically evaluate the effectiveness of non-pharmacological interventions (NPIs), including electroacupuncture, exercise, diet, and lifestyle changes, in reducing androgen levels in women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) through a systematic review and network meta-analysis.
Methods: Comprehensive searches were conducted in PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, Web of Science, CNKI, and Wanfang up to June 2024. Randomized controlled trials (RCTs) comparing NPIs with other NPIs or placebo treatments in adult women with PCOS were included.
