This study demonstrates that lipoabdominoplasty performed under sedation with TAP block and tumescent anesthesia is safe, effective, and feasible in an outpatient setting, offering excellent pain control, minimal nausea, and high patient sa
This report describes the use of dexmedetomidine infusion for sedation in severely agitated adolescents in the ED, highlighting its feasibility as a bridge therapy while awaiting psychiatric care.
A prospective study shows that sedation combined with tumescent anesthesia and TAP block meets or exceeds patient expectations for comfort and accelerates postoperative recovery in lipoabdominoplasty.
The A2B randomized clinical trial reveals that dexmedetomidine- or clonidine-based sedation does not significantly reduce the time to successful extubation compared to propofol in critically ill patients, while increasing the risk of bradyc
The SEGA randomized trial suggests general anesthesia (GA) during endovascular therapy for large‑vessel occlusion stroke may lead to better 90‑day functional outcomes and higher reperfusion rates than moderate sedation, though credible inte
In mechanically ventilated patients with early acute hypoxemic respiratory failure, continuous IV sedation produces EEG patterns (EEG Ups) not seen in natural sleep; these patterns correlate with sedation dose, drug combinations, clinical s
A systematic review and meta-analysis of eight RCTs finds no significant safety differences between fasting and nonfasting strategies before cardiac catheterization with minimal to moderate sedation, challenging traditional practices.
A multicenter phase 3 trial finds inhaled isoflurane as effective as intravenous midazolam for sedation in mechanically ventilated children, with added benefits of reduced opioid use and faster extubation.
