The effect of intra‐operative mechanical ventilation modes on pulmonary outcomes after thoracic surgery with one‐lung ventilation has not been well established. We evaluated the impact of three common ventilation modes on postoperative pulmonary complications in patients undergoing lung resection surgery. In this two‐centre randomised controlled trial, 1224 adults scheduled for lung resection surgery...
Whether high‐flow vs. low‐flow nasal oxygen reduces hypoxaemia for sedation during endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography is currently unknown. In this multicentre trial, 132 patients ASA physical status 3 or higher, BMI > 30 kg.m‐2 or with known or suspected obstructive sleep apnoea were randomly allocated to high‐flow nasal oxygen up to 60 l.min‐1 at 100% FIO2 or low‐flow nasal oxygen...

Previous pairwise meta‐analyses have either compared groups of needles or ranked individual needles based on the pooled incidence of post‐dural puncture headache. These analyses have suggested both the gauge and needle tip design as risk‐factors, but failed to provide an unbiased comparison of individual...
