Combustion of surgical drapes during surgery is a rare event which can nonetheless lead to serious consequences. Iatrogenic burns caused by this complication are often deep and lead to functional and aesthetic sequelae. Nevertheless, awareness of the triggering factors and mechanisms, as well as knowledge of the proper use of various at-risk products such as alcohol-based antiseptic agents and compressed oxygen can reduce the incidence of these undesirable events.

The use of new oxygen supports associated to non-invasive respiratory strategies is well-established in clinical practice, especially after its extensive application in the management of Covid-19 respiratory failure. The use of high flow nasal cannula (HFNC) in patients undergoing procedural sedation and analgesia (PSA) is dramatically increasing. Enzymatic debridement in critical burn patients is a painful treatment that requires an optimal burn pain control protocol as well as a deep sedation for the entire duration of the procedure.

Introduction: Although associated with respiratory morbidity, elective endotracheal intubation (ETI) for laser photocoagulation for retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) is the standard practice at our institution, with 100% of patients undergoing preoperation ETI. To mitigate this risk, we strove to reduce the percentage of infants intubated for laser photocoagulation by 30% by June 2022.
Methods: We assembled a multidisciplinary team and implemented a deep sedation guideline utilizing dexmedetomidine, fentanyl, and midazolam with noninvasive ventilation support for laser photocoagulation in January 2020.

Background And Importance: Effective and safe procedural sedation is pivotal for the quality of care in the emergency department (ED).
Objectives: The aim of this work is to evaluate the feasibility, effectiveness, and safety procedural sedation performed by emergency physicians in the ED setting in Italy.
Design/setting And Participants/intervention: Following a specific training of the staff and with the adoption of a standardized protocol, a registry of procedural sedations performed on adult patients in 10 Italian EDs was compiled from 2019 to 2022; the following basic data were recorded: demographic and clinical information, procedure's indication, administered drugs, predefined, and actual sedation level.
Objective: Previous studies have reported that the noise generated by dental equipment can interfere with the auscultation of respiratory sounds during sedation. Therefore, this study aimed to identify whether positing the acoustic sensor on the chest or cervical position would be least susceptible to interference from dental suction device noise, a prominent noise noted during respiratory sound monitoring during dental sedation.
Methods: This prospective cohort study was conducted with 30 students.
