Objective: To determine the efficacy of ventilatory techniques by evaluating prevalence of technique failure and intraoperative hypoxia during endoscopic management of airway stenosis.

Data Sources: A systematic review was conducted using PubMed and Embase for anesthesia techniques in endoscopic management of airway stenosis.

Review Methods: The primary outcome measured was reports of partial and complete technique failure. The secondary outcome measured was intraoperative hypoxia.

Results: We identified 7704 abstracts with 17 meeting criteria for analysis. The reported partial and complete ventilatory technique failures were: 0 % Evone Flow-Controlled Ventilation with Tritube endotracheal tube, 0 % laryngeal mask airway, 0 % nonocclusive balloon dilator, 4.76 % spontaneous respiration using intravenous anesthesia and Hi-flow nasal oxygen, and 30.24 % jet ventilation. The reported rate of intraoperative hypoxia was: 0 % Evone Flow-Controlled Ventilation with Tritube endotracheal tube, 0 % spontaneous respiration using intravenous anesthesia and Hi-flow nasal oxygen, 2.18 % jet ventilation, 3.57 % laryngeal mask airway, and 5 % nonocclusive balloon dilator.

Conclusion: Evone Flow-Controlled Ventilation with Tritube endotracheal tube had the lowest risk of technique failure and intraoperative hypoxia. Nonocclusive balloon dilator and laryngeal mask airway were also favorable techniques for ventilation. Jet ventilation showed a lower rate of intraoperative hypoxia, but a higher rate of failure. Newer techniques, such as Evone Flow-Controlled Ventilation with Tritube, nonocclusive balloon dilator and spontaneous respiration using intravenous anesthesia and Hi-flow nasal oxygen, may offer promise compared to older techniques like jet ventilation; however, larger studies with more uniform data are needed to determine their efficacy.

Background: Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is the most common sleep-related breathing disorder associated with multisystem organ involvement. The STOP-BANG questionnaire is a short and valid questionnaire used to screen OSA. This study aimed to investigate the ability of the STOP-BANG questionnaire to predict postoperative OSA- related respiratory complications in patients undergoing bariatric surgery.

Methemoglobinemia is a rare but potentially life-threatening condition in which hemoglobin is oxidized, impairing the oxygen-carrying capacity. While congenital forms exist, acquired methemoglobinemia can occur in perioperative settings, especially following exposure to oxidizing agents such as dyes used in sentinel lymph node biopsy (SLNB). Patent Blue V, a synthetic aniline dye commonly used for SLNB, has been associated with rare but serious adverse effects, including methemoglobinemia.

High-flow nasal cannula oxygen therapy versus conventional oxygen therapy in patients undergoing bronchoscopy: a retrospective study.

Department of Pulmonary and Critical Care Medicine, Union Hospital, Tongji Medical College, Huazhong University of Science and Technology, Wuhan, China.

Background: Patients undergoing bronchoscopy, particularly those with pre-existing hypoxemia, face a significant risk of further deterioration in their oxygen saturation levels. This heightened risk necessitates the provision of supplemental oxygen therapy throughout the procedure, rendering it mandatory. High-flow nasal cannula (HFNC) has been widely employed in the management of hypoxemic acute respiratory failure (ARF) in adults.

Purpose: In China, the majority of hysteroscopic procedures require moderate sedation and analgesia. The efficacy of intravenous lidocaine in reducing the need for sedatives and alleviating perioperative pain during hysteroscopy remains equivocal. This study aims to determine whether the intravenous administration of lidocaine can reduce the required dose of propofol and enhance perioperative pain management.

Pancreatic cancer is known for its high invasiveness and metastasis, making rapid visualization and precise treatment critical for improving patient outcomes. Current diagnostic tools lack abilities to provide rapid and accurate tumor localization, particularly for real-time intraoperative guidance. To address this gap, the study has developed a novel Förster Resonance Energy Transfer (FRET)-mediated dual-ratiometric near-infrared fluorescence (NIRF)/photoacoustic (PA) bimodal probe, SiRho-SHD-NTR, specifically designed for the fast and accurate navigation of pancreatic tumor resection.
