Randomized Controlled Trial Multicenter Study
Local infiltration of HYR-PB21, a sustained-release formulation of bupivacaine, provides analgesia and reduces opioid requirement after haemorrhoidectomy: a randomised controlled trial.
HYR-PB21 is a new sustained-release formulation of bupivacaine indicated for controlling postoperative pain. The objectives of this study were to investigate the analgesic efficacy and safety profile of HYR-PB21 in patients after haemorrhoidectomy. ⋯ ChiCTR2000041318 (Chinese Clinical Trial Registry).

Review Meta Analysis
Pre-hospital tracheal intubation in severe traumatic brain injury: a systematic review and meta-analysis.
Severe traumatic brain injury (TBI) continues to be a leading cause of death, particularly in young adults. Severe TBI contributes to significant socioeconomic burden secondary to the long-term disability, impacting the individual and their family, and wider society. The aim of this study was to determine whether establishing a pre-hospital definitive airway was beneficial to mortality and morbidity when compared with no pre-hospital airway. ⋯ CRD42021234439.

Randomized Controlled Trial Multicenter Study
Tranexamic acid dose-response relationship for antifibrinolysis in postpartum haemorrhage during Caesarean delivery: TRACES, a double-blind, placebo-controlled, multicentre, dose-ranging biomarker study.
The optimal dose of tranexamic acid to inhibit hyperfibrinolysis in postpartum haemorrhage is unclear. Tranexamic Acid to Reduce Blood Loss in Hemorrhagic Cesarean Delivery (TRACES) was a double-blind, placebo-controlled, randomised, multicentre dose-ranging study to determine the dose-effect relationship for two regimens of intravenous tranexamic acid vs placebo. ⋯ NCT02797119.
