This study looked at whether an artificial intelligence (AI) tool can help doctors diagnose ventilator-associated pneumonia (a serious lung infection) in ICU patients. Researchers analyzed chest X-rays from 119 adults on breathing machines, comparing the AI's readings to doctors'…

This study looked at 90 adults having knee replacement surgery to see which nerve block technique works better for pain control and getting patients moving sooner. One group got a fascia iliaca plane block, the other got a combination of adductor canal and IPACK blocks. Researche…

This study looked at 60 adults having lung surgery (VATS) to compare two types of nerve blocks for pain relief: the Edge Laminar Block and the Serratus Posterior Superior Intercostal Plane Block. Researchers measured pain scores, how much opioid painkiller patients needed, and si…

This study looked at two ways to manage pain after coronary artery bypass surgery. All 72 patients received a standard parasternal nerve block, and half also got an additional serratus anterior plane block. Researchers measured pain scores and how much pain medicine patients need…

This study looked at whether a doctor's encouraging words can help patients feel less pain and anxiety during a colonoscopy done without sedation. Over 100 adults took part, with some hearing positive phrases like "You're doing great" during the procedure. The goal was to see if …

This study looked at whether using a very low flow of the anesthesia gas sevoflurane during heart surgery is safe and reduces environmental impact. 92 adults having planned heart surgery were randomly assigned to receive either ultra-low-flow or normal-flow anesthesia. Researcher…

This study examines whether frailty and simple blood tests can predict which patients aged 80 and older are most likely to die within 30 days after major abdominal surgery. Researchers will review records of 100 patients to see if a frailty index and lab markers like albumin and …

This study looked at 200 older adults (65+) having planned surgery for colorectal cancer. Researchers used a frailty test before surgery to see if it could predict complications like infections or longer hospital stays. The goal is to help doctors better plan care and reduce risk…

This study looked at how changing a patient's position during major abdominal cancer surgery affects their heart function and vital signs. Researchers used a non-invasive esophageal Doppler monitor to measure cardiac output in 80 patients undergoing either laparoscopic or open su…

This study looked at 330 older adults (65+) who had cancer surgery to see if low albumin levels before surgery led to more complications. Researchers compared patients with low albumin to those with normal levels, tracking problems like infections, hospital stay length, and ICU n…

This study tested whether a tool called the ARISCAT score can predict lung complications (like pneumonia or collapsed lung) after major abdominal cancer surgery. Researchers followed 410 adults who had surgery under general anesthesia. The goal was to see if the score could help …

This study looked at 220 women having breast surgery to see if a blue dye called methylene blue, used to find lymph nodes, changes blood pressure or heart rate during anesthesia. The researchers compared women who got the dye with those who did not. The goal was to learn if the d…

This study looked at 100 adults having gastrointestinal cancer surgery to see if sarcopenia (muscle loss) changes how muscle relaxants work during anesthesia. Patients were grouped based on CT scans showing sarcopenia. The researchers measured how fast the relaxants worked, how d…

This study looked at 180 older adults (65+) having major abdominal cancer surgery to see if giving fluids based on real-time body signals (goal-directed fluid therapy) helps prevent short-term memory and thinking problems after surgery. Patients received either this personalized …

This study looked at 120 women having mastectomy for breast cancer to see if the gender of their anesthesiologist affected their pain and need for painkillers after surgery. Researchers compared pain scores and medication use between patients treated by male versus female anesthe…

This study tested whether a detailed, color-coded brain wave monitor (Density Spectral Array) helps anesthesiologists use less medication compared to a standard single-number monitor (Bispectral Index). 45 adults undergoing gynecological cancer surgery were observed. The goal was…

This completed study used artificial intelligence to predict the risk of death within 30 days and 1 year after hip fracture surgery. Researchers analyzed data from 1000 patients, including age, health conditions, and lab results. The goal was to see if AI could better identify hi…

This study reviewed the medical records of 239 patients aged 65 and older who had major abdominal surgery. The goal was to find out what factors increase the risk of lung complications like pneumonia or respiratory failure after surgery. By understanding these risks, doctors may …

This study looked at 94 patients who had major abdominal surgery for gynecologic cancers. Researchers compared pain relief from a standard nerve block (TAP block) alone versus combining it with another block (QLB or RSB). The goal was to see which approach reduced pain and opioid…

This study examined the effects of low-flow sevoflurane anesthesia on breathing mechanics and oxygen exchange in 50 adults undergoing lung surgery with one-lung ventilation. Researchers compared low-flow versus standard-flow anesthesia to see if it improves lung function and redu…

This completed study looked at 12,500 cancer patients who had a type of heart attack called NSTEMI. Researchers compared those who got invasive procedures like angiography versus those treated only with medications. The goal was to see which approach led to fewer deaths in the ho…

This completed study looked at how two different anesthesia methods—general anesthesia and a nerve block called PECS block—affect certain immune cells in the blood of 50 women with breast cancer undergoing lumpectomy. The goal was to see if one method might be better for the immu…
