How do you individualise PEEP in patients undergoing general anaesthesia? In certain patients, adjusting PEEP based on a calculation of BMI/3 improved lung mechanics and reduced postoperative loss of lung aeration. #anaesthesia #MedTwitter doi.org/10.1111/anae.1…

Valadkhani et al. aimed to investigate the relationship between intraoperative hypotension, tachycardia, and perioperative myocardial injury (PMI) in patients undergoing vascular surgery. A DBP < 44 mmHg was the most predicative of PMI. Check it out! buff.ly/OlWojcx

There's a name for staying up late even though you know you'll regret it: Bedtime procrastination. It's more likely when you dread tomorrow, lack freedom and joy today, and do mindless activities tonight. A simple, effective antidote is committing to a sleep time and routine.

Does DBP vs SBP vs MAP intraoperative hypotension (IOH) predict myocardial injury? Find out in this featured article by Valadkhani et al. where they used a machine-learning approach to identify specific thresholds for IOH and tachycardia. buff.ly/ps8aOwh
