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.

Randomized Controlled Trial Comparative Study
Postoperative quality of recovery comparison between ciprofol and propofol in total intravenous anesthesia for elderly patients undergoing laparoscopic major abdominal surgery: A randomized, controlled, double-blind, non-inferiority trial.
We conducted a non-inferiority study to assess the postoperative quality of recovery (QoR) in elderly patients receiving ciprofol or propofol total intravenous anesthersia(TIVA)after elective laparoscopic major abdominal surgery, with QoR-15 scores as the main measure. ⋯ Ciprofol is not inferior to propofol in QoR. Ciprofol can be suitably administered to elderly patients undergoing elective laparoscopic major abdominal surgery.

Meta Analysis
Impact of intravenous steroids on subjective recovery quality after surgery: A meta-analysis of randomized clinical trials.
Quality of postoperative recovery is a crucial aspect of perioperative care. This meta-analysis aimed to evaluate the efficacy of intravenous steroids in improving the quality of recovery (QoR) after surgery, as measured by validated QoR scales. ⋯ Intravenous administration of steroids significantly improved QoR after surgery. The benefits of steroids extend to all dimensions of QoR and important clinical outcomes such as analgesic requirements, pain scores, and PONV. These findings support the use of steroids as an effective strategy to enhance the postoperative recovery quality.

Randomized Controlled Trial Multicenter Study
Effect of perioperative rehabilitation exercise on postoperative outcomes in patients aged ≥65 years undergoing gastrointestinal surgery: A multicenter randomized controlled trial.
This study aimed to assess the effect of perioperative rehabilitation exercise, initiated shortly after hospital admission, on postoperative outcomes in elderly patients. ⋯ Perioperative rehabilitation exercise has a positive impact on postoperative complications, quality of life and psychological well-being in elderly patients undergoing gastrointestinal surgery, even when implemented after hospital admission.

In recent years, the integration of advanced diabetes technology into the care of individuals with diabetes has grown exponentially. Given their increasing prevalence, insulin-requiring people with diabetes may present to preoperative clinics or the operating rooms wearing such devices. ⋯ Therefore, perioperative clinicians need to become familiar with diabetes technological advances, and device features and have an understanding of how they can be used in the perioperative period. This consensus statement aims to serve as an educational material as well as to serve as a guide to perioperative clinicians caring for patients wearing diabetes devices (insulin pumps and continuous glucose monitors).
