Background: There is no consensus regarding safe intraoperative blood pressure thresholds that protect against postoperative acute kidney injury (AKI). This review aims to examine the existing literature to delineate safe intraoperative hypotension (IOH) parameters to prevent postoperative AKI.

Methods: PubMed, Cochrane Central, and Web of Science were systematically searched for articles published between 2015 and 2022 relating the effects of IOH on postoperative AKI.

Results: Our search yielded 19 articles. IOH risk thresholds ranged from <50 to <75 ​mmHg for mean arterial pressure (MAP) and from <70 to <100 ​mmHg for systolic blood pressure (SBP). MAP below 65 ​mmHg for over 5 ​min was the most cited threshold (N ​= ​13) consistently associated with increased postoperative AKI. Greater magnitude and duration of MAP and SBP below the thresholds were generally associated with a dose-dependent increase in postoperative AKI incidence.

Conclusions: While a consistent definition for IOH remains elusive, the evidence suggests that MAP below 65 ​mmHg for over 5 ​min is strongly associated with postoperative AKI, with the risk increasing with the magnitude and duration of IOH.

Background: Intraoperative hypotension is very common during surgery and is linked to major organ dysfunction and mortality. Current perioperative blood pressure management is largely based on universal blood pressure thresholds ranging from a mean arterial pressure of 60-70 mmHg. However, the effectiveness of this conventional management remains unproven in prospective randomized trials.

Background: Shivering, nausea and vomiting are common complications in cesarean section during neuraxial anesthesia. The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of prophylactic use of ondansetron on intraoperative shivering, nausea and vomiting in women undergoing cesarean section.

Methods: A total of 80 full-term parturients were randomly divided into the ondansetron group and the control group.

Artificial intelligence in anesthesiology: a bibliometric analysis.

Perioper Med (Lond)

December 2024

Department of Anesthesiology, West China Hospital, Sichuan University, Chengdu, 610041, Sichuan, China.

The application of artificial intelligence (AI) in anesthesiology has become increasingly widespread. However, no previous study has analyzed this field from the bibliometric analysis dimension. The objective of this paper was to assess the global research trends in AI in anesthesiology using bibliometric software.

Purpose: The routine perioperative use of opioids has recently been questioned due to opioid-related side effects, which can be potentially harmful in geriatric patients. This study aimed to evaluate the effects of opioid-free anesthesia in geriatric patients undergoing hip surgery.

Patients And Methods: A total of 121 patients, aged 60 years or older, undergoing elective hip surgery were randomized to receive either opioid-free anesthesia with dexmedetomidine and esketamine (OFA group) or balanced anesthesia with opioids (CON group).

Background: Hemodynamic changes are independent risk factors for long-term patient morbidity and duration of hospital stay. According to the statistics, the three most prevalent complications in the postanaesthesia care unit were airway events, haemodynamic instability, and postoperative nausea and vomiting. Hemodynamic instability in the postanaesthesia care unit can result in serious complications, such as long-term patient morbidity and prolonged hospital stays.
