-bleeding
-delayed recovery

A study of 16,811 #cardiac surgery cases found that patients cared for by the least familiar #surgeon and #anesthesia teams had an odds ratio of 1.9 for operative mortality.

Would you change your assignment patterns based on this information?

New #APSF editorial:

“A flexible, patient-centered, opioıd-sparing multimodal approach rather than absolute opioıd elimination may better support #perioperative safety and recovery while addressing the complexities of surgical pain management.”

2,000+ patients. One surprising finding. 👀
#Ketamine vs. #etomidate for RSI in critically ill adults — a new NEJM RCT found no difference in 28-day mortality. But ketamine came with more cardiovascular collapse & lower peri-intubation BPs.
