ReviewNew insights in cardiovascular anesthesia: a dual focus on clinical practice and research.
Accumulation of the results of basic and clinical research has advanced the safety and quality of management in cardiovascular anesthesia. To address recent developments in this field, a symposium was held during the 71th Japanese Society of Anesthesiologists annual meetings in 2024, focusing on new advancements in both clinical and basic research in cardiovascular anesthesia. ⋯ Each expert summarized recent novel findings, clinical reliability and concerns, as well as future directions in their respective topics. We believe that this special article provides valuable insights into both clinical practice and basic research in cardiovascular anesthesia while also inspiring anesthesiologists to pursue further research in this field.

Randomized Controlled TrialEffect of intravenous different drugs on the prevention of restlessness during recovery period of pediatric laparoscopic surgery: a randomized control trial.
To explored the impact of dexmedetomidine and esketamine in mitigating restlessness during the postoperative recovery phase following laparoscopic surgery in children. ⋯ Following CO2 pneumoperitoneum in pediatric laparoscopic surgeries, the intravenous administration of 1 μg/kg dexmedetomidine or 0.3 mg/kg esketamine effectively lowers EA occurrence without extending PACU time.

Randomized Controlled Trial Comparative StudyEffect of restrictive versus liberal fluid therapy for laparoscopic gastric surgery on postoperative complications: a randomized controlled trial.
Currently, laparoscopic surgery is a standard technique in the field of abdominal surgery. However, the most adequate fluid regimen during laparoscopic surgery remains unclear. The aim of this trial is to compare a restricted fluid therapy with a liberal fluid therapy for laparoscopic abdominal surgery. Our hypothesis was that restrictive fluid therapy would reduce postoperative complications better than liberal fluid therapy. ⋯ Restricted fluid therapy and liberal fluid therapy did not show any statistical differences in postoperative complications after laparoscopic gastric surgery.

The effects of frailty on opioid consumption after total knee arthroplasty.
This study evaluated the effects of frailty on postoperative opioid consumption in elderly patients. ⋯ Our study results indicate that frailty, easily assessed preoperatively in elderly surgical patients, is a significant predictor of postoperative opioid consumption.
