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.

Heart-lung bypass lowered kidney blood flow by about half and lowered oxygen levels in the kidney tissue.
The brain's blood flow and oxygen levels were not much changed.
When noradrenaline was used, kidney oxygen levels dropped more than with vasopressin.

Does the choice of vasopressors affect renal oxygenation during cardiopulmonary bypass?
Using an ovine model, researchers found that intra-operative noradrenaline worsens renal medullary tissue oxygenation relative to vasopressin.

Can special breathing tests help doctors find out which children might have breathing problems during an operation?
Researchers were able to do the nitric oxide test in 91% of the children and the oscillation test in 61%.
Neither test helped doctors!

What is the impact?
It builds surgical capacity and system resilience.

Target-controlled infusions have been criticised as too slow for RSI, due primarily to the maximum infusion rate of most pumps (~1200 ml/h).
Effect-site concentrations at time-to-peak effect were nearly identical between target-controlled and manual infusions.
