- Background Cardiac surgery produces dorso-basal atelectasis and ventilation/perfusion mismatch, associated with infection and prolonged intensive care. A postoperative lung volume recruitment manoeuvre to decrease the degree of atelectasis is routine. In patients with severe respiratory failure, prone positioning and recruitment manoeuvres may increase survival, oxygenation, or both. We compared the effects of lung recruitment in prone vs supine positions on dorsal inspiratory and end-expiratory lung aeration. Methods In a prospective RCT, 30 post-cardiac surgery patients were randomly allocated to recruitment manoeuvres in the prone (n=15) or supine position (n=15). The primary endpoints were late dorsal inspiratory volume (arbitrary units [a.u.]) and left/right dorsal end-expiratory lung volume change (a.u.), prone vs supine after extubation, measured using electrical impedance tomography. Secondary outcomes included left/right dorsal inspiratory volumes (a.u.) and left/right dorsal end-expiratory lung volume change (a.u.) after prone recruitment and extubation. Results The last part of dorsal end-inspiratory volume after extubation was higher after prone (49.1 a.u.; 95% confidence interval [CI], 37.4–60.6) vs supine recruitment (24.2 a.u.; 95% CI, 18.4–29.6; P=0.024). Improvement in left dorsal end-expiratory lung volume after extubation was higher after prone (382 a.u.; 95% CI, 261–502) vs supine recruitment (–71 a.u., 95% CI, –140 to –2; n=15; P<0.001). After prone recruitment, left vs right predominant end-expiratory dorsal lung volume change disappeared after extubation. However, both left and right end-expiratory volumes were higher in the prone group, after extubation. Conclusions Recruitment in the prone position improves dorsal inspiratory and end-expiratory lung volumes after cardiac surgery.

- BackgroundThis exploratory study aimed to investigate whether dexmedetomidine, propofol, sevoflurane, and S-ketamine affect oxylipins and bile acids, which are functionally diverse molecules with possible connections to cellular bioenergetics, immune modulation, and organ protection.MethodsIn this randomised, open-label, controlled, parallel group, Phase IV clinical drug trial, healthy male subjects (n=160) received equipotent doses (EC50 for verbal command) of dexmedetomidine (1.5 ng ml−1; n=40), propofol (1.7 μg ml−1; n=40), sevoflurane (0.9% end-tidal; n=40), S-ketamine (0.75 μg ml−1; n=20), or placebo (n=20). Blood samples for tandem mass spectrometry were obtained at baseline, after study drug administration at 60 and 130 min from baseline; 40 metabolites were analysed.ResultsStatistically significant changes vs placebo were observed in 62.5%, 12.5%, 5.0%, and 2.5% of analytes in dexmedetomidine, propofol, sevoflurane, and S-ketamine groups, respectively. Data are presented as standard deviation score, 95% confidence interval, and P-value. Dexmedetomidine induced wide-ranging decreases in oxylipins and bile acids. Amongst others, 9,10-dihydroxyoctadecenoic acid (DiHOME) –1.19 (–1.6; –0.78), P<0.001 and 12,13-DiHOME –1.22 (–1.66; –0.77), P<0.001 were affected. Propofol elevated 9,10-DiHOME 2.29 (1.62; 2.96), P<0.001 and 12,13-DiHOME 2.13 (1.42; 2.84), P<0.001. Analytes were mostly unaffected by S-ketamine. Sevoflurane decreased tauroursodeoxycholic acid (TUDCA) –2.7 (–3.84; –1.55), P=0.015.ConclusionsDexmedetomidine-induced oxylipin alterations may be connected to pathways associated with organ protection. In contrast to dexmedetomidine, propofol emulsion elevated DiHOMEs, oxylipins associated with acute respiratory distress syndrome, and mitochondrial dysfunction in high concentrations. Further research is needed to establish the behaviour of DIHOMEs during prolonged propofol/dexmedetomidine infusions and to verify the sevoflurane-induced reduction in TUDCA, a suggested neuroprotective agent.Clinical trial registrationNCT02624401.

- BackgroundCentral venous access is essential for the administration of chemotherapy and frequent blood sampling in patients with cancer. The subcutaneous venous port is commonly used for this purpose. Subcutaneous venous port implantation is a minor surgical procedure; however, it can provoke pain and anxiety in these vulnerable patients. The aim of this study was, before a full-scale RCT, to determine the feasibility of patient-controlled sedation with propofol and alfentanil as an adjunct to local anaesthesia during SVP implantation.MethodsWe prospectively studied 40 patients scheduled for SVP implantation between 14 April 2021 and 15 October 2021 at a 500-bed secondary level hospital in Sweden. Anaesthesiologists performed subcutaneous venous port implantation with patient-controlled sedation using propofol and alfentanil. We determined pain perception (primary outcome), patient satisfaction, sedation score, and key safety measures.ResultsOf the 40 patients with cancer, 80% reported a pain score ≤3 on an 11-point numeric rating scale during subcutaneous venous port implantation. Overall satisfaction with pain management and operating conditions was graded as 10 of 10 on the numeric rating scale. Four patients (10%) had bradypnoea (<8 bpm) without oxygen desaturation to ≤90%. Rescue sedation was administered to one patient (2.5%).ConclusionPatient-controlled sedation with propofol and alfentanil during subcutaneous venous port implantation is feasible and well accepted. Ultimately the efficacy of patient-controlled sedation with propofol and alfentanil needs to be evaluated in an RCT to provide clinicians with evidence-based guidance for choosing the optimal perioperative strategy for subcutaneous venous port implantation.
