It is not fun for anyone when children don't sleep! Does having surgery or a general anaesthetic affect sleep? #anaesthesia #MedTwitter https://t.co/AFaPzP2LcV

"Attempts to mitigate the impact of nitrous oxide through cracking technology or leak prevention, while noble, do not negate its disproportionate footprint relative to benefit. These.. require substantial capital, infrastructure, energy and ongoing maintenance." #anaesthesia

"...the continued use of nitrous oxide as a primary modality for labour analgesia is becoming increasingly difficult to defend, given the growing evidence of its limited clinical efficacy, large environmental impact and economic value." #anaesthesia #obstetrics #climate

Airway POCUS POCUS was associated with higher odds of first-pass success rates during percutaneous tracheostomy when compared with landmark techniques. #AnSky #AirwaySky #MedTwitter https://t.co/jhZrVB09Kq

Regional anesthesia catheter management - the intermittent bolus side argued by @elboghdadly #ESRA2025 Cites @Anaes_Journal systematic review and network meta-analysis, noting highest level of evidence, and shows advantages of bolus regimen. Full text: https://t.co/gSDzCUVeKQ

It was great to meet up in person with Drs @Bubu84csa and Agnese Ozolina in Oslo! We have an editorial coming out soon in @Anaes_Journal with @angie_lee8 that is very relevant to discussions we have been having at #ESRA2025 about chronic pain after surgery.

"Intra-operative opioid use is a critical parameter to determine the efficacy of a regional block." Will the laparoscopic-installed rectus sheath block procedure and evaluation affect postoperative nerve block efficacy? #anaesthesia #MedTwitter #regionalanaesthesia

"Although it is desirable to assess for delirium repeatedly due to its fluctuating nature, there is no universally accepted standard for the optimal frequency of daily assessments." #anaesthesia #MedTwitter #delirium https://t.co/RuC41qCaVO

Thrilled to share our network meta-analysis on the effects of peri-operative pharmacological interventions on post-operative delirium in cardiac surgery patients. 🔪🫀 📌 Dexmed + melatonin was the most effective intervention at decreasing POD. 🔗:

"The primary outcome... a quantifiable gain in operating theatre efficiency when tracheal extubation occurs in the post-anaesthesia care unit, is notable. However, the associated finding of a 30-min increase in PACU stay offsets any efficiency gained intra-op..." #anaesthesia

Postoperative delirium and quality of recovery in older patients undergoing gastrectomy under general anaesthesia with remimazolam vs. propofol #anaesthesia #delirium #pharmacology https://t.co/Nq2B6xbea5

To meet the global surgical burden, the volume and availability of elective surgery must be increased safely. Locoregional and spinal anaesthesia could be adopted as safe options to increase surgical volume when there is limited access to general anaesthesia. @DrJamesGlasbey

THAT’S OUR GUY! GO MIKE!

What are the categories of workplace bullying in healthcare? • Work-related bullying eg ambushing, withholding • Person-related bullying eg mocking, excluding • Physical intimidation eg shouting, threatening gestures #anaesthesia #MedTwitter #bullying

Airway complications in children • occurred in 15.4% • most common - hypoxaemia • higher in < 10 kg (24.5%) vs ≥ 10 kg (11.2%) • lower in hybrid technique (5.3%) vs VL (14.0%) vs DL (21.6%) #anaesthesia #MedTwitter #pedsanes #paedsanaes https://t.co/FoNXT8KMei

Using the hybrid technique of simultaneous VL and flexible bronchoscopy in children First-attempt tracheal intubation success was highest with the hybrid technique (74.5%) compared with VL (60.9%, p = 0.020) and DL (10.0%, p < 0.001) #anaesthesia #pedsanes #paedsanaes #airway
