    Abstract Background: Recent studies have reported that costoclavicular blocks (CCBs) can consistently block almost all branches of the brachial plexus while sparing the phrenic nerve and provide effective analgesia after shoulder surgery. We aimed to compare the efficacy of the CCB with that of the interscalene block (ISB) as the sole blocking technique for shoulder surgery.
    Methods: A total of 212 patients undergoing elective arthroscopic shoulder surgery were randomized to receive an ISB or CCB based on a non-inferiority design. All patients received titration sedation with propofol under monitored anesthesia during surgery. The primary outcomes were the proportion of patients with complete motor blockade of the suprascapular nerve (SSN) and incidence of hemidiaphragmatic paralysis (HDP). The secondary outcomes included block-related variables, complications, and postoperative pain scores.
    Results: The proportion of patients with complete motor blockade of the SSN at 20 min between the CCB and ISB groups (53% vs. 66%) exceeded the predefined non-inferiority margin of -5%, but was comparable at 30 min (87% vs. 91%). The CCB resulted in a significantly lower incidence of HDP (7.55% vs. 92.45%), Horner's syndrome (0% vs. 18.87%), and dyspnea (0% vs. 10.38%) than the ISB. None of the patients experienced failed blocks or required conversion to general anesthesia. Pain scores were comparable between the groups.
    Conclusions: Ultrasound-guided CCBs may be comparable to ISBs, with fewer unfavorable complications in patients with impaired lung function undergoing arthroscopic shoulder surgery.

    Abstract Background: Recently, several case reports and limited randomized studies have shown that quadratus lumborum blocks (QLB) are effective in providing pain relief after intra-abdominal and retroperitoneal operations. Additionally, robot-assisted partial nephrectomy (RAPN) has been proposed as a promising operative treatment for renal carcinoma because it enables early recovery and ambulation. Therefore, we aimed to evaluate the analgesic and opioid-sparing effects of a single-injection QLB in patients undergoing RAPN to determine its role in an early recovery program.
    Methods: Fifty-six patients undergoing elective RAPN under general anesthesia were randomized to two equally sized groups. Patients were randomly allocated to receive either a unilateral QLB (n = 28) with 0.375% bupivacaine 0.5 mL/kg (QLB group) or a conventional scheme (n = 28) (control group). The QLB technique, termed QLB2, was performed as first described by Blanco. The primary outcome was visual analog scale (VAS) scores with movement at 6 h postoperatively. The secondary endpoints were morphine consumption at different time periods after surgery, morphine-related side effects, and assessment of postoperative rehabilitation.
    Results: Both the VAS pain scores and cumulative opioid consumption were significantly lower in the QLB group at 6 h after surgery as compared with results in the control group (all P < 0.05). There were significant differences in pain scores at all time points except at 4 h with movement and 48 h at rest. However, at 12-24 h no significant differences between the two groups were observed in cumulative opioid consumption or in the duration of PACU and hospital stays. The patient recovery scores were significantly higher in the QLB group.
    Conclusions: Single-injection pre-emptive QLB applied to RAPN was effective and provided satisfactory analgesia and opioid-sparing effects in combination with typical patient-controlled analgesia. In addition, it may provide an effective technique for early recovery in the perioperative period for RAPN.

    Abstract A large amount of clinical evidence has revealed that ketamine can relieve fentanyl-induced hyperalgesia. However, the underlying mechanism is still unclear. In the current study, a single dose of ketamine (5 mg/kg or 10 mg/kg), TAK-242 (3 mg/kg), or saline was intraperitoneally injected into rats 15 min before four subcutaneous injections of fentanyl. Results revealed that pre-administration of ketamine alleviated fentanyl-induced hyperalgesia according to hind paw-pressure and paw-withdrawal tests. High-dose ketamine can reverse the expression of toll-like receptor-dimer (d-TLR4), phospho- nuclear factor kappa-B (p-NF-κB, p-p65), cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2), interleukin-1β (IL-1β), and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) 1 d after fentanyl injection in the spinal cord. Moreover, fentany-linduced-hyperalgesia and changes in the expression of the aforementioned proteins can be attenuated by TAK-242, an inhibitor of TLR4, as well as ketamine. Importantly, TLR4, p-p65, COX-2, and IL-1β were expressed in neurons but not in glial cells in the spinal cord 1 d after fentanyl injection. In conclusion, results suggested that a single dose of ketamine can relieve fentanyl-induced-hyperalgesia via the TLR4/NF-κB pathway in spinal cord neurons.

    Abstract Introduction: It is encouraged to estimate the effectiveness of components within the enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) protocol through patient-reported outcomes, alongside doctor-reported outcomes and length of hospital stay. At present, studies on the contributions of optimal anaesthetic drugs within the ERAS protocol to patient-reported and doctor-reported outcomes are limited. Therefore, this study aims to pragmatically evaluate the effectiveness and safety of general anaesthesia (GA) with remimazolam tosilate within the ERAS protocol on intraoperative haemodynamics and postoperative recovery in adults undergoing elective surgeries, compared with propofol.
    Methods and analysis: This study is a single-centre, randomised, blinded, positive-controlled, pragmatic clinical trial. A total of 900 patients, aged ≥18 years old, scheduled for an elective surgical procedure under GA will be included. Patients will be randomised in a 1:1 ratio to the remimazolam group (the GA with remimazolam tosilate within the ERAS protocol group) or propofol group (the GA with propofol within the ERAS protocol group), stratified by general surgery, thoracic surgery and other surgeries (including urological surgery and otolaryngology surgery). The primary outcomes include the 24-hour postoperative quality of recovery-40 score and the rate of intraoperative hypotension. Secondary endpoints include the rate of sedative hypotension requiring treatment, the haemodynamic profiles, the 72-hour postoperative quality of recovery-40 score, the functional anaesthetic capability, adverse events and complications, quality of life within 3 months as well as economic health outcomes.
    Ethics and dissemination: This study protocol has been approved by the ethics committee of Guangdong Provincial People's Hospital (KY-H-2022-005-03-08). Dissemination plans will be presented at scientific meetings and in scientific publications.

    Abstract Accidental awareness during general anaesthesia may cause many intraoperative discomforts and bring further moderate to severe long-term symptoms including flashbacks, nightmares, hyperarousal or post-traumatic stress disorder. The incidence of awareness varied from 0.017% to 4% among studies. The relatively reliable incidence of intraoperative awareness with postoperative recall is 0.02%. The reason causing awareness was unclear. Insufficient anaesthetic dosing was thought as the principal cause. Even awareness was not comprehensively understood, some endeavors have been raised to prevent or reduce it, including i) Reducing the insufficient anaesthetic dosing induced by negligence; ii) Providing close clinical observation and clinical parameters from the monitor such as bispectral index or electroencephalogram, as well as isolated forearm technique and passive brain-computer interface may bring some effects sometimes. Because current studies still have some flaws, further trials with new detecting approach, superior methodology and underlying aetiology are needed to unfasten the possible factors causing awareness.

    Abstract Introduction: Hip fracture is a common and serious emergency in the elderly, and it is associated with severe pain, significant morbidity and mortality. The use of peripheral nerve block can relieve pain effectively and reduce opioid requirements, which may accelerate patient's recovery. The pericapsular nerve group (PENG) block has been found to provide an effective blockade to the hip joint with a potential motor-sparing effect, so we hypothesised that the PENG block may be an effective tool to enhance the recovery in elderly patients after hip fracture surgery.
    Methods and analysis: This study is a single-centred, randomised, parallel controlled, double-blind trial. A total of 92 elderly patients scheduled for hip fracture surgery will be divided into two groups at random to receive either ultrasound-guided femoral nerve block or ultrasound-guided PENG block. The primary outcome will be to compare the Quality of Recovery-15 scores at 24 hours postoperatively between the two groups. The secondary outcomes will include measuring and comparing the strength of the quadriceps, the visual analogue scale at rest and on movement, the total morphine consumption, the rescue analgesic, the first time of postoperative out-of-bed mobilisation and complications.
    Ethics and dissemination: This study was approved by the Institutional Review Board of the Ethics Committee of The First Affiliated Hospital of Guangzhou University of Chinese Medicine on 15 December 2020 (reference K2020-110). The results of this study will be published in peer-reviewed international journals.
