Esketamine infusion for the prevention of tourniquet-induced intra-operative hypertension

Esketamine:
⬇️ the RR of tourniquet-induced hypertension by 63%
⬇️ hypotension
• infusion of 0.25 mg kg-1 h-1 for the lower limb surgeries was well tolerated

CPET provides an objective measure of pre-op functional capacity.

Variables are associated with postop complications and mortality.

Results vary by age, sex and comorbidity.

Opioid use disorder

The increasing trajectory will be particularly pronounced in high and low sociodemographic index regions, whereas people in intermediate sociodemographic index regions may experience relatively stable rates.
