Randomized Controlled Trial
Intrathecal morphine and sleep apnoea severity in patients undergoing hip arthroplasty: a randomised, controlled, triple-blinded trial.
Intrathecal morphine 100mcg did not increase obstructive sleep apnea severity in those undergoing hip arthroplasty under spinal anesthesia.

Review
Analysis of practices to promote reproducibility and transparency in anaesthesiology research.
Reliable, high-quality research is essential to the field of anaesthesiology. Reproducibility and transparency have been investigated in the biomedical domain and in the social sciences, with both lacking to provide necessary information to reproduce the study findings. In this study, we investigated 14 indicators of reproducibility in anaesthesiology research. ⋯ Anaesthesiology research needs to improve indicators of reproducibility and transparency. By making research publicly available and improving accessibility to detailed study components, primary research can be reproduced in subsequent studies and help contribute to the development of new practice guidelines.

Randomized Controlled Trial
Fully automated postoperative ventilation in cardiac surgery patients: a randomised clinical trial.
Ensuring that lung-protective ventilation is achieved at scale is challenging in perioperative practice. Fully automated ventilation may be more effective in delivering lung-protective ventilation. Here, we compared automated lung-protective ventilation with conventional ventilation after elective cardiac surgery in haemodynamically stable patients. ⋯ NCT03180203.

Randomized Controlled Trial Comparative Study
Effects of anaesthesia method and tourniquet use on recovery following total knee arthroplasty: a randomised controlled study.
Recovery after total knee arthroplasty was similar for spinal and general anaesthesia across broad post-operative indicators.
