Vivid discussion between presenter of mechanical power study and Journal Editor asa best abstract session meeting. Mechanical power assessment during anesthesia will help us identify patients at risk of reintubation. Kudos Max and Aiman!

ASA2021 best abstract session: addressable disparities explain adverse postoperative outcomes in patients with black versus white race. Action item: better preoperative treatment of diabetes and hypertension

Such a great honor working with and learning from Maximilian Schaefer and Aiman Suleiman at BIDMC Anesthesia, Critical Care and Pain Medicine

Protective ventilation in the OR: How much tidal volume can we give - 6, 8, 10, or 12 cc/kg? It depends on patient’s lung volume/compliance of course. One size doesn’t fit all. bjanaesthesia.org/article/S0007-…

It is unclear whether mechanical power during #ventilation is associated with adverse outcomes. Now, new research indicates higher mechanical power during ventilation is statistically associated with a greater risk of postoperative respiratory failure. ow.ly/vcTb50JyFTh

Congratulations Aiman Suleiman from the Perioperative Outcomes Lab, Center for Anesthesia Research Excellence at BIDMC BIDMC Anesthesia, Critical Care and Pain Medicine for Best Abstract at the Association of University Anesthesiologists annual meeting 2023!!

Drs. Suleiman and Schaefer present her award winning work on entropy and lung protection. Congratulations! #IARS

Excited to listen to Dr. Aiman Suleiman’s BEST ABSTRACT PRESENTATION on the intersection of mechanical ventilation and physics!

Hysteresis-derived lung entropy - a novel concept to assess quality of mechanical ventilation and pulmonary response. Dr. Aiman Suleimen Aiman Suleiman from the Perioperative Outcomes Lab BIDMC Anesthesia, Critical Care and Pain Medicine BIDMC presents among best abstract finalists at #IARS23 meeting

I am blessed with an amazing team- 12 abstracts, 3x BEST ABSTRACT and lots of fun! A very succesful #IARS23 #AUA23 #SOCCA23 meeting for our Perioperative Outcomes Lab at the Center for Anesthesia Research Excellence (CARE) at BIDMC Anesthesia, Critical Care and Pain Medicine BIDMC Harvard Medical School

⁦Aiman Suleiman⁩ received the very Kosake Best Abstract Award #IARS23 in the clinical research category- he was smart enough to conduct a secondary analysis of the EPvent trial to test his hypothesis that ventilation entropy predicts mortality. Impressive work, Dr. Aiman!

Increasing respiratory rate upon transition of mechanically ventilated patients from OR to the ICU often leads to higher intensity of ventilation and is then associated with higher mortality risk - a study from our lab just published in the AJRCCM. First author Dario von Wedel
