Can we cut treatment time without sacrificing outcomes? pcTBS matched conventional rTMS for chronic neuropathic #pain while reducing treatment time in this randomized trial. A promising step toward more accessible #neuromodulation. 🧠 Check out this #infographic on #rTMS from @IARS_Journals.
A narrative review of mechanisms of burst-suppresion generation including general anesthetics & neuronal pathologies, the role & utility of BSP in cerebral protection strategies, & the significance of BSP with respect to long-term functional neurological outcomes. journals.lww.com/anesthesia-a...
🚶♂️ Patients presenting w/ elevated 2-AG levels in the synovial and cerebrospinal fluid reported greater postoperative pain at rest & w/ ambulation, effects more pronounced in females. journals.lww.com/anesthesia-a...
Using comprehensive patient-reported SDoH data from a large national dataset, this study identified food insecurity and loneliness as key factors significantly increasing odds of persistent postoperative pain, whereas strong social support was protective. journals.lww.com/anesthesia-a...
💉Children undergoing septal defect repairs who received ultrasound-guided pecto-intercostal plane and rectus sheath blocks had less opioid use in the first 12 hours and lower pain intensity in the first 48 hours after surgery. journals.lww.com/anesthesia-a...

💛In an aborted small clinical trial of pts undergoing major CV surgery using CPB, pre-emptive administration of haptoglobin resulted in a higher change in creatinine vs administration of haptoglobin after appearance of hemolytic urine. journals.lww.com/anesthesia-a...
🫗Adherence to a fluid-fasting time of 2 to 4 hours was 40%. Evidence shows a decrease in postoperative delirium in the recovery room, hospital length of stay, and patient-reported outcomes for short (2–4 hours) in comparison with longer times. journals.lww.com/anesthesia-a...
📈 After adjustment for patient severity of illness, the maximal cumulative and individual dosing of vasopressors in critically ill patients with shock varied between ICUs. There was no clear dosing above which survival to hospital discharge was impossible. journals.lww.com/anesthesia-a...

Are “GABAergic” Agents Really So Selective for GABA? In a review of 310 in vitro studies, almost all anesthetics acted on multiple molecular targets w/ similar potencies. Propofol shows greater potency at nicotinic receptors& HCN channels than at GABAA receptors. journals.lww.com/anesthesia-a...
