Objective: To explore whether baseline pulse pressure (PP) confers an increased risk for acute kidney injury (AKI) independent of intraoperative hypotension or hypertension in patients who undergo coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) surgery.

Design: Retrospective study.

Setting: Single academic center.

Participants: 5,808 patients who underwent CABG surgery.

Measurements And Main Results: Baseline arterial blood pressure was defined as the mean of the first 5 measurements recorded by the automated record keeping system before anesthesia was induced. Weighted duration of intraoperative hypotension and hypertension were defined as the area (min × mmHg) below a mean arterial pressure of 55 mmHg and above a mean arterial pressure of 100 mmHg. Multivariable logistic and proportional odds regression analyses were performed to determine whether baseline PP and weighted duration of intraoperative hypotension and hypertension were independently associated with postoperative AKI. Of the 5,808 patients, PP was <40 mmHg in 90 (1.6%), 40-to-80 mmHg in 2,463 (42.4 %), and >80 mmHg in 3,255 (56%) patients. The incidence of AKI was 57.7%, which included 7.4% (249 patients) and 2.8% (93 patients) who experienced stages 2 and 3 AKI, respectively. In the risk-adjusted analyses, baseline PP was associated with higher odds for postoperative AKI (odds ratio for every 20 mmHg increase in PP, 1.15; 95% confidence interval 1.10-1.21; p < 0.0001) and a higher severity of postoperative AKI (proportional odds ratio, 1.13; 95% confidence interval 1.03-1.24; p = 0.0098). There was no evidence that weighted duration of intraoperative hypotension or hypertension was associated with postoperative AKI or that either interacted with the association of baseline PP with AKI.

Conclusions: Baseline PP was significantly associated with postoperative AKI after CABG surgery, independent of weighted duration of intraoperative hypotension or hypertension.

Background: Subarachnoid anesthesia is the primary anesthetic method for elective cesarean section surgery, characterized by rapidly taking effect and reliable analgesia. However, subarachnoid anesthesia is prone to cause a high block level, resulting in a high incidence of maternal hypotension. How to reduce the incidence of maternal hypotension under subarachnoid anesthesia is a practical problem that needs to be solved urgently in clinical practice.

Necrotizing fasciitis is a severe and rapidly progressing soft tissue infection that requires immediate intervention. However, its manifestation as tarsal tunnel syndrome in a diabetic patient is an extremely rare occurrence, with no previous reports found in the existing literature. We present a case report of a patient in their late 50s with uncontrolled diabetes who had necrotizing fasciitis and presented initially to the emergency department with hypotension.

Effects of Neuraxial or General Anesthesia on the Incidence of Postoperative Pulmonary Complications in Patients Undergoing Peripheral Vascular Surgery: A Randomized Controlled Trial.

Objectives: Postoperative complications after major surgery, especially in vascular procedures, are associated with a significant increase in costs and mortality. Postoperative pulmonary complications (PPCs) have a notable impact on morbidity and mortality. The primary aim of this present study was to evaluate the effects of spinal anesthesia compared with general anesthesia on the incidence of PPCs in patients undergoing lower extremity bypass surgery.

This article offers a comprehensive clinical update on best practices for neuraxial and general anesthesia in cesarean delivery, the most frequently performed major surgical procedure globally. Current evidence-based strategies to address common anesthetic challenges, such as maternal hypotension and intraoperative breakthrough pain, are discussed in detail. Practical approaches for optimizing maternal hemodynamic stability, including the use of vasopressors, fluid management and maternal positioning, are reviewed.
