Randomized Controlled Trial
Effect of inspiratory oxygen fraction during driving pressure-guided ventilation strategy on pulmonary complications following open abdominal surgery: A randomized controlled trial.
The aim of the present study was to determine the effect of 30 % fraction of inspired oxygen (FIO2) compared with 80 % FIO2 in the context of driving pressure-guided ventilation strategy on pulmonary complications following open abdominal surgery. ⋯ In patients undergoing open abdominal surgery, using a 30 % FIO2, compared with 80 % FIO2, in context of driving pressure-guided ventilation strategy, intraoperatively reduced the incidence and severity of pulmonary complications within the first 7 postoperative days.

Randomized Controlled Trial
Continuous vital sign monitoring on surgical wards: The COSMOS pilot.
Alerts for vital sign abnormalities seek to identify meaningful patient instability while limiting alarm fatigue. Optimal vital sign alarm settings for postoperative patients remain unknown, as is whether alerts lead to effective clinical responses reducing vital sign disturbances. We conducted a 2-phase pilot study to identify thresholds and delays and test the hypothesis that alerts from continuous monitoring reduce the duration of vital sign abnormalities. ⋯ gov registration: NCT05280574.

Review Meta Analysis
Efficacy and safety of neuraxial hydromorphone: A systematic review and meta-analysis with trial sequential analysis.
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.
