For patients undergoing abdominal surgery, postoperative pulmonary complications (PPCs) are a major source of morbidity and mortality. The use of point-of-care ultrasonography (POCUS), and specifically POCUS of the lungs, has seen many advancements in recent years. We hypothesize that perioperative lung ultrasonography can be used as a predictor for PPCs.

Background: Short-term and long-term adverse events could occur after general anesthesia (GA) and the specific mechanism driving these effects has not yet been well-characterized. In this study, we aimed to evaluate the global effect of GA on DNA methylation in the cell-free DNA (cfDNA) of surgical lung-nodule patients.

Methods: This large retrospective cohort study enrolled 1,006 surgical lung nodule patients (529 pre-anesthesia, and 477 post-anesthesia).

Objective: To compare sedation protocols for dynamic bronchoscopy (DB) in the evaluation of expiratory central airway collapse (ECAC).

Materials And Methods: This observational study included adult patients (≥18 years) referred to Mayo Clinic, Jacksonville, FL, from March 2023 to July 2024, for suspected ECAC. Patients were grouped based on sedation protocols: propofol (Protocol 1), remimazolam (Protocol 2), and remimazolam/fentanyl (Protocol 3).

Background: The brachial plexus block is conducive to providing postoperative analgesia for patients with humeral fractures. The commonly used brachial plexus block techniques have a high incidence rate of hemidiaphragmatic paralysis (HDP), which may lead to respiratory problems. The combined costoclavicular brachial plexus - cervical plexus blocks (CCB-CPBs) had demonstrated favorable analgesic effects and had reduced the incidence of HDP in shoulder surgeries.

Background: Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a frequent comorbidity. The current study evaluated whether there is a difference in the perioperative outcome after total hip arthroplasty (THA) in patients who had a low to moderate risk for OSA and high risk for OSA, respectively.

Methods: After excluding patients who had concomitant lung disease (chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, asthma, or lung fibrosis) and those missing a STOP-Bang Score, 1,141 THA patients who had OSA were included in this retrospective study.
