Video‐assisted thoracoscopic surgery has become increasingly popular due to faster recovery times and reduced postoperative pain compared with thoracotomy. However, analgesic regimens for video‐assisted thoracoscopic surgery vary significantly. The goal of this systematic review was to evaluate the available literature and develop recommendations for optimal pain management after video‐assisted thoracoscopic...
Interscalene brachial plexus block is the standard regional analgesic technique for shoulder surgery. Given its adverse effects, alternative techniques have been explored. Reports suggest that the erector spinae plane block may potentially provide effective analgesia following shoulder surgery. However, its analgesic efficacy for shoulder surgery compared with placebo or local anaesthetic infiltration...

We randomly allocated 84 participants to 3 minutes of pre‐oxygenation by one of three methods: 15 l.min‐1 by facemask; 50 l.min‐1 by high‐flow nasal cannulae only; or 50 l.min‐1 by high‐flow nasal cannulae plus 15 l.min...
