Words to Avoid During Wide-awake Local Anesthesia No Tourniquet Surgery to Enhance Patient Experience.
Plast Reconstr Surg Glob Open

Division of Plastic Surgery, Dalhousie University, Saint John, NB, Canada.
In the evolving landscape of ambulatory surgery, wide-awake local anesthesia no tourniquet (WALANT) surgery has emerged as a preferred approach due to its efficacy, cost-effectiveness, and patient satisfaction. This paradigm shift places the patient at the center of intraoperative communication, requiring a significant change in the dialogue within the operating room (OR). Traditional conversations, which often exclude the unconscious patient, must evolve to accommodate and prioritize the psychological comfort of the conscious patient.

Background: Clinicians are frequently asked 'how long' questions at end-of-life by patients and those important to them, yet predicting timeframes to death remains uncertain, even in the last weeks and days of life. Patients and families wish to know so they can ask questions, plan, make decisions, have time to visit and say their goodbyes, and have holistic care needs met. Consequently, this necessitates a more accurate assessment of empirical data to better inform prognostication and reduce uncertainty around time until death.

Introduction: Digital addiction is discussed in the literature as a type of addiction that negatively affects the personal, social, and societal lives of individuals. Digital addiction is a behavioral addiction that occurs as a result of the problematic and unconscious use of digital tools with features such as compulsive, excessive, impulsivity, and includes human-machine interaction. What is meant to be expressed with conscious awareness is to accept the facts and experiences as they are without judgment, and to be aware of them.

Article Synopsis
- - The study examines the relationship between conscious awareness and the detection of semantic information in individual words, focusing on Chinese characters and involving a priming technique called breaking continuous flash suppression (b-CFS).
- - Results show that semantic relatedness helped in recognizing characters only when combined with orthographic similarity; orthographic similarity alone actually hindered recognition.
- - The findings support theories of unconscious processing in language perception and suggest that orthographic factors can enable semantic processing without conscious awareness, highlighting a potential model for early character recognition in Chinese.

Introduction: This prospective, observational study investigated the impact of patient/anesthesiologist interactions and socioeconomic factors on administering intravenous analgesics and anxiolytics during elective Cesarean delivery under spinal anesthesia. The study explored the role of emotional experiences and psychosocial characteristics on intraoperative administration of intravenous adjuncts.
Methods: The study included 502 patient/anesthesiologist dyads from two hospitals in Israel.
