Observational Study
A comprehensive echocardiographic analysis during simulated hypovolaemia: An observational study.
Peri-operative and critically ill patients often experience mild to moderate hypovolaemic shock with preserved mean arterial pressure (MAP), heart rate (HR) and decreased stroke volume index (SVI). ⋯ ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT03481855.

Randomized Controlled Trial
Effect of head and neck positions on tracheal intubation using a McGRATH MAC video laryngoscope: A randomised, prospective study.
Different head and neck positions may affect video laryngoscopy in terms of laryngeal exposure, intubation difficulty, advancement of the tracheal tube into the glottis and the occurrence of palatopharyngeal mucosal injury. ⋯ The head elevation position facilitated tracheal intubation using a McGRATH MAC video laryngoscope compared with a simple head extension or sniffing position.

Randomized Controlled Trial Multicenter Study
The effect of opioid-free anaesthesia on the quality of recovery after endoscopic sinus surgery: A multicentre randomised controlled trial.
It remains to be determined whether opioid-free anaesthesia (OFA) is consistently effective for different types of surgery. ⋯ OFA can provide good intraoperative analgesia and postoperative recovery quality as effectively as conventional opioid anaesthesia in patients undergoing ESS. OFA can be an alternative option in the pain management of ESS.
