To identify the influence of modifiable factors in anesthesia induction strategy on post-induction hypotension (PIH), specifically the type, dosage and speed of administration of induction agents. A secondary aim was to identify patient related non-modifiable factors associated with PIH. ⋯ This study was registered in the Dutch Medical Research in Humans (OMON) register on 18 June 2019 (ID: NL7810). The study was approved by the Medical Ethics Committee of the Amsterdam UMC, location AMC, the Netherlands in December 2018 (NL 6748.018.18; 2018).

Peripheral nerve blocks (PNBs) are widely used for postoperative analgesia, but rebound pain following block resolution poses a significant clinical challenge. Dexamethasone, administered either intravenously (IV) or perineurally, has shown promise in reducing rebound pain incidence, but the optimal route remains unclear. This network meta-analysis (NMA) aims to compare the effectiveness of different routes of dexamethasone administration, including IV, perineural, and control, in reducing the incidence of rebound pain following PNBs. ⋯ PROSPERO CRD42024530943.

Evaluate the impact of deep neuromuscular blockade on intraoperative nociception Deep neuromuscular blockade has been shown to improve surgical conditions and postoperative outcomes compared to moderate neuromuscular blockade in laparoscopic surgery. Still, its impact on intraoperative nociception and opioid requirement has never been assessed. ⋯ This study shows that deep neuromuscular blockade reduces intraoperative NOL-guided administration of remifentanil in colorectal laparoscopic surgeries. It also improves surgical conditions.

Neuraxial hydromorphone provides postoperative pain relief. However, the magnitude of this effect and the optimal dose remain unknown. The objective of this study is to clarify these uncertainties. ⋯ If neuraxial hydromorphone is to be used regularly, trials focusing on the optimal dose and side-effects should be performed before widely administering this medication into the neuraxial space. More trials focusing on the optimal dose and side-effects should be performed before widely administering this medication into the neuraxial space.
