This study looked at whether an artificial intelligence (AI) tool can help diagnose ventilator-associated pneumonia (a serious lung infection) in intensive care unit patients on breathing machines. Researchers compared AI analysis of chest X-rays with evaluations from doctors and…

This study tested if a doctor's calming and encouraging words during a colonoscopy (done without sedation) can help reduce pain and anxiety. 102 adults took part, with half receiving positive verbal suggestions and the other half receiving standard care. The goal was to see if th…

This study looked at two different nerve block methods to control pain and help people walk sooner after total knee replacement surgery. 90 adults having knee replacement under spinal anesthesia received either a fascia iliaca block or a combination of adductor canal and IPACK bl…

This study tested two different nerve-block methods to control pain after coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG). 72 adults having planned heart surgery received either a standard parasternal block or that block plus an additional serratus anterior plane block. Researchers measur…

This study looked at two different numbing injections (ELB and SPSIPB) to see which works better for pain after lung surgery. Sixty adults having video-assisted lung surgery received one of the two blocks. Researchers tracked pain levels, how much extra pain medicine was needed, …

This study involved 80 adults having major abdominal cancer surgery, either with a scope (laparoscopic) or open incision. Researchers used a special probe placed in the esophagus to measure heart function in two different positions: lying flat and tilted head-down. The goal was t…

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

This study tested a way to give anesthesia during heart surgery using much less gas than usual. The goal was to see if it safely reduces medicine use and pollution. 92 adults having planned heart surgery took part. Researchers measured how much anesthesia was used and estimated t…

This study looked at 1,000 hip fracture surgery patients to see if an AI model could better predict who might die within 30 days or a year after surgery, compared to traditional methods. The goal is to help doctors identify high-risk patients and make more informed treatment deci…

This study looked at 94 adults having major abdominal surgery for gynecologic cancers. Researchers compared three types of pain blocks given during routine care: one block alone or two different two-block combinations. The goal was to see which approach reduced pain and opioid us…

This study looked at 100 adults with gastrointestinal cancer to see if having sarcopenia (muscle loss) changes how their body responds to muscle relaxants during surgery. Researchers used CT scans to group patients as sarcopenic or not, then measured how fast and deeply the muscl…

This study looked at 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 he…

This study looked at 45 adults having gynecological surgery under general anesthesia. Researchers compared a standard brain monitor (BIS) that gives a single number to a newer one (DSA) that shows a detailed color map of brain waves. The goal was to see if the detailed map helps …

This study looked at 12,500 cancer patients who had a mild heart attack (non-ST elevation MI). Researchers compared those who got invasive procedures like stents or bypass surgery with those who got only medications. The goal was to see which approach led to fewer deaths in the h…

This study looked at 120 women having mastectomy for breast cancer to see if the gender of their anesthesiologist and the type of pain relief used affected their pain levels and need for painkillers after surgery. Researchers measured pain at 1, 6, 12, and 24 hours after the oper…

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

This study looked at 180 older adults (65+) having major cancer surgery on their abdomen. It compared two ways of giving fluids during the operation: a standard method versus a personalized approach using special monitors to guide fluid amounts. The goal was to see if the persona…

This study looked at 50 women with breast cancer who had a lumpectomy. Researchers compared two types of anesthesia—general anesthesia and a nerve block called PECS block—to see how each affected blood cell counts (like white blood cells and platelets) before and after surgery. T…

This study looked at 200 older adults (65+) having planned surgery for colorectal cancer. Researchers used a simple 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 impr…

This study looked at medical records of 239 patients aged 65 and older who had major abdominal surgery. The goal was to find out what factors increase the chance of lung complications like pneumonia or breathing failure after surgery. By identifying these risks, doctors may be ab…

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 complications, hospital stay length, and ICU needs. The g…

This study looked at 100 patients aged 80 and older who had major abdominal surgery to find out what factors best predict death within 30 days. Researchers focused on frailty (a measure of physical weakness) and physiological reserve (body's ability to handle stress) using simple…
