Towards a dedicated quality of recovery scale for regional anaesthesia

Is it time for the development of a dedicated regional anaesthesia quality of recovery tool?

Other tools (eg quality of recovery-15 (QoR-15) scale) don't quite capture the unique aspects of recovery following regional anaesthesia.

Nitrous oxide capture by the different classes of porous adsorbents.

(NB. The partial pressures found in anaesthesia are far lower than industrial scale nitrous oxide capture, where the bulk of literature is focused.)

Venous thromboembolism risk following surgery during the COVID-19 pandemic

The highest risk of clots happened during the Alpha wave of COVID-19, when about 1 in 100 patients (1.2%) developed a clot.

People who caught COVID-19 after surgery were about 4 times more likely to get a blood clot than those who didn't.

SARS-CoV-2 infection is associated with an increased risk of venous thromboembolism.

Post-operative infection and recent infection increased risk.

Unvaccinated patients had the highest risk.

A single dose of vaccine had a 20% relative risk reduction.

Pre-hospital central venous lines

"The time required to prepare, perform and confirm a central line insertion, particularly in a complex pre-hospital environment, could have a significant impact on outcomes and deserves analysis."

More sensible, but not as catchy!

How about ​"Sustained Trace = Safe Place"?

Extreme swings in practice are often erroneous, & it is possible that an all-or-none decision-making process for cricoid force application is one of these errors. Some patients require prophylactic application of cricoid force; some warrant therapeutic application..

Incidence of peri-operative peripheral nerve injuries associated with general and regional anaesthesia: an observational study

The risk of peri-operative peripheral nerve injuries in Victoria is lower than historical estimates and appears to be decreasing with time.

The use of administrative databases allows for inclusion of denominator data = more accurate estimate of risk in rare events.
