Trauma and Orthopaedics, Wrightington Hospital, Wigan, GBR.
Introduction Increasing demand and financial burdens are placing significant strain on current health resources. To help ease pressures, there has been increased emphasis on improving patient flow and saving costs within the health service. Routine postoperative blood tests in otherwise healthy patients may add to delays and healthcare costs without influencing subsequent management.

Objective: To evaluate the safety and efficacy of remimazolam in hysteroscopic surgery in elderly patients.
Methods: Following hysteroscopic surgery under selected general anesthesia, 60 elderly patients ASA (American Society of Anesthesiologists) class II-III, >65 years old were randomly assigned to one of two groups: the R group (remimazolam) or the C group (propofol), each with 30 patients. Sufentanil 0.
Article Synopsis
- Researchers believe that lung ultrasound scores (LUS) can better predict cardiac risks in elderly patients undergoing hip fracture surgery, compared to existing methods like the Revised Cardiac Risk Index and ASA Physical Status.
- The study involved 877 patients across 11 Italian hospitals, finding a significant correlation between higher LUS scores and complications, with a notable incidence of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE).
- Results showed that a preoperative LUS score of 8 or higher was more effective at predicting MACE than traditional scoring methods, indicating its potential as a valuable tool for risk assessment in this patient population.
Competencies for proficiency in basic point-of-care ultrasound in anesthesiology: national expert recommendations using Delphi methodology.

Department of Anesthesiology and Perioperative Medicine, Queen's University, Kingston, ON, Canada.
Purpose: Point-of-care ultrasound (POCUS) allows for rapid bedside assessment and guidance of patient care. Recently, POCUS was included as a mandatory component of Canadian anesthesiology training; however, there is no national consensus regarding the competencies to guide curriculum development. We therefore aimed to define national residency competencies for basic perioperative POCUS proficiency.
