Randomized Controlled Trial
Interpectoral-pectoserratus plane (PECS II) block in patients undergoing trans-axillary thoracic outlet decompression surgery; A prospective double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled clinical trial.
To investigate if an interpectoral-pectoserratus plane (PECS II) block decreases postoperative pain, postoperative nausea and vomiting and improves quality of recovery in patients with neurogenic thoracic outlet syndrome (NTOS) undergoing trans-axillary thoracic outlet decompression surgery. ⋯ The interpectoral-pectoserratus plane block is not effective for postoperative analgesia in patients with NTOS undergoing trans-axillary thoracic outlet decompression surgery.

Randomized Controlled Trial
The effects of a short-term perioperative duloxetine treatment on post-colectomy pain: A randomized, controlled clinical trial.
To test the hypothesis that duloxetine reduces postoperative morphine consumption and pain intensity in patients undergoing major colonic surgeries. ⋯ Under this study's conditions, short-term duloxetine did not reduce total opioid consumption or pain intensity during the initial 48 h following major colon surgery.

Randomized Controlled Trial
Comparison of remimazolam-based and propofol-based total intravenous anesthesia on postoperative quality of recovery: A randomized non-inferiority trial.
The quality of recovery (QoR) of remimazolam-based and propofol-based total intravenous anesthesia was compared as measured by QoR-15 scores. ⋯ Remimazolam-based total intravenous anesthesia provided a similar QoR to propofol. Remimazolam and propofol can be used interchangeably for general anesthesia in female patients undergoing thyroid surgery.
