AI Article Synopsis

  • The integration of AI and ML in anesthesiology and perioperative medicine is transforming clinical practices by synthesizing patient data for better precision medicine and predictive assessments.
  • Emerging AI models help in various areas such as assessing anesthetic depth, predicting surgical events and risks, enhancing ultrasound guidance, managing pain, and optimizing operating room logistics.
  • The analysis of these technologies aims to evaluate their strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats (SWOT) to guide the future adoption of AI models in anesthesiology workflows.

Article Abstract

The use of artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) in anesthesiology and perioperative medicine is quickly becoming a mainstay of clinical practice. Anesthesiology is a data-rich medical specialty that integrates multitudes of patient-specific information. Perioperative medicine is ripe for applications of AI and ML to facilitate data synthesis for precision medicine and predictive assessments. Examples of emergent AI models include those that assist in assessing depth and modulating control of anesthetic delivery, event and risk prediction, ultrasound guidance, pain management, and operating room logistics. AI and ML support analyzing integrated perioperative data at scale and can assess patterns to deliver optimal patient-specific care. By exploring the benefits and limitations of this technology, we provide a basis of considerations for evaluating the adoption of AI models into various anesthesiology workflows. This analysis of AI and ML in anesthesiology and perioperative medicine explores the current landscape to understand better the strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats (SWOT) these tools offer.

Objectives: Past studies have shown the efficacy of spinal targeted drug delivery (TDD) in pain relief, reduction in opioid use, and cost-effectiveness in long-term management of complex chronic pain. We conducted a survey to determine treatment variables associated with patient satisfaction.

Materials And Methods: Patients in a single pain clinic who were implanted with Medtronic pain pumps to relieve intractable pain were identified from our electronic health record.

Langenbecks Arch Surg

January 2025

Department of Hepatobiliary Surgery, Shandong Provincial Hospital, Shandong First Medical University, 324 Jingwuweiqi Road, Jinan, 250021, China.

Purpose: To compare outcomes of LLR in VI/VII of the liver in Left-lateral Decubitus Jackknife Position (LDJP) and traditional Supine Position (SP). We used propensity score matching (PSM) to analyze clinical outcomes.

Patients & Methods: This study retrospectively analyzed patients undergoing LLR for liver tumors in segments VI and/or VII at Shandong Provincial Hospital from 2018 to 2023.

Economic impact of prolonged tracheal extubation times on operating room time overall and for subgroups of surgeons: a historical cohort study.

BMC Anesthesiol

January 2025

Department of Anesthesiology, Perioperative Medicine and Pain Management, 1611 NW 12, University of Miami, Miami, FL, 33136, USA.

Background: Prolonged tracheal extubation time is defined as an interval ≥ 15 min from the end of surgery to extubation. An earlier study showed that prolonged extubations had a mean 12.4 min longer time from the end of surgery to operating room (OR) exit.

Background: We sought to define textbook outcome in liver surgery (TOLS) for intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (ICC) by considering the implications of perioperative outcomes on overall survival (OS).

Methods: Using a multi-institutional database, TOLS for ICC was defined by employing novel machine learning (ML) models to identify perioperative factors most strongly predictive of OS ≥ 12 months. Subsequently, clinicopathologic factors associated with achieving TOLS were investigated.
