[Infographics] Effect of remimazolam on postoperative delirium and cognitive function in adults undergoing general anesthesia or procedural sedation: a meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials Read full article in doi.org/10.4097/kja.24… #KJA #SCIE #infographic

XR tech isn’t just for gaming—it’s helping patients feel less pain and anxiety during surgery! Anesthesiologists use it to train the next-gen. Check out “Extended Reality in Anesthesia: A Narrative Review” in KJA’s Feb 2025 issue for insights! doi.org/10.4097/kja.24…

Can anesthesia impact your cognition after surgery? Our study compares remimazolam and propofol, revealing that remimazolam preserves cognitive function while reducing the risk of low blood pressure. A step toward safer sedation! doi.org/10.4097/kja.24…

This comprehensive review article highlights the addiction potential of propofol, discusses its neuropharmacological mechanisms in the light of current literature, and concludes that propofol should be included among controlled drugs. doi.org/10.4097/kja.24…

Moyamoya disease (MMD) is a rare cerebrovascular disease. Children with MMD usually experience transient ischemic attacks or cerebral infarctions. Careful management of patients with MMD is crucial for preventing perioperative ischemic complications. doi.org/10.4097/kja.24…

Although, remimazolam is known for hemodynamic stability over propofol, remimazolam failed to show non-inferiority to etomidate in terms of post-induction hypotension when used as an induction drug of general anesthesia in patients undergoing CABG. doi.org/10.4097/kja.24…

Can we achieve stable hemodynamics during cerebrovascular bypass surgery? Our RCT reveals that remimazolam anesthesia reduces hypotension and vasoactive agent use compared to propofol-desflurane anesthesia. A step toward safer neuroanesthesia! doi.org/10.4097/kja.24…

Managing postoperative pain in bariatric surgery is challenging. Can external oblique intercostal block improve outcomes? Our study shows significant opioid reduction and better recovery in obese patients undergoing laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy! doi.org/10.4097/kja.24…

[Current Issue] We are pleased to deliver table of contents alert for KJA 78(3); June 2025 - Current Issue: ekja.org/current/ - Featured article: doi.org/10.4097/kja.24… - Review: doi.org/10.4097/kja.25… - Statistical Round: doi.org/10.4097/kja.25… #KJA #SCIE #MEDLINE

Promising in animals, ineffective in humans—anesthetic preconditioning fails to protect aging brains. However, strategies to improve mitochondrial function (e.g., preop exercise) may improve postoperative neurological outcomes in older patients doi.org/10.4097/kja.25…

CO₂ magic in anesthesia! Mild hypercapnia (ETCO₂ 50-55 mmHg) turbocharges wake-up from IV sedation—faster breathing, eyes open, tube out! Safe + speedy revival unlocked. doi.org/10.4097/kja.24…

A low oxygen reserve index measured after 3 min. of preoxygenation for general anesthesia was significantly associated with an increased risk of postoperative pulmonary complications in surgical patients, including those undergoing thoracic surgery. doi.org/10.4097/kja.24…

We proposed a simple superoposterior approach for thoracic transforaminal epidural injection under ultrasound guidance. Used to control multi-nerve zoster pain, as epidural contrast spread covered all involved nerves in one shot. doi.org/10.4097/kja.24…

The intranasal combination of dexmedetomidine (2 μg/kg) and ketamine (3 mg/kg) is a safe and effective alternative to chloral hydrate (50 mg/kg) for sedation in pediatric patients under 7 years, showing similar success rates but fewer complications. doi.org/10.4097/kja.24…

Primary tricuspid regurgitation is not benign. Our study shows that even without pulmonary hypertension, anatomical TV incompetence significantly worsens liver transplant outcomes. Liver transplant evaluation must not overlook this subtle cardiac danger. doi.org/10.4097/kja.24…

Over 18 years, 'THINK DRINK' has demonstrated how challenging outdated fasting norms and allowing sips of water until surgery improves the patient experience. A small sip, a big impact! doi.org/10.4097/kja.24…
