Purpose Of Review: The objective of this review is to examine the available evidence concerning feeding interruptions before extubation and other medical procedures in ICUs. We will analyze the physiological mechanisms involved, the potential risks associated with feeding interruptions, as well as the results of recent clinical studies. Additionally, we will explore current practices and recommendations from major professional societies, as well as recent innovations aimed at minimizing feeding interruptions.

This retrospective study evaluates the clinical impact of perioperative multimodal analgesia in the minimally invasive treatment of severe blunt chest trauma with hemopneumothorax using a thoracoscopic Ni-Ti shape memory embracing plate. A total of 100 patients with severe blunt chest trauma and moderate to severe hemopneumothorax treated at Hanyang Hospital affiliated with Wuhan University of Science and Technology from January 2019 to January 2022 were enrolled. Patients were divided into 2 groups: a control group (50 patients) receiving patient-controlled intravenous analgesia (PCIA), and a study group (50 patients) administered a multimodal analgesia regimen.
