Acute opioid tolerance: intraoperative remifentanil increases postoperative pain and morphine requirement.

TL;DR: Relatively large-dose intraoperative remifentanil increased postoperative pain and morphine consumption is suggested to have caused acute opioid tolerance and hyperalgesia.
Journal ArticleDOI

Nefopam and Ketamine Comparably Enhance Postoperative Analgesia

TL;DR: Tachycardia and profuse sweating were more frequent in patients given nefopam, and sedation was more intense with ketamine; however, the incidence of other potential complications did not differ among groups.
letters-and-commentsDOI

Tranexamic Acid in Patients Undergoing Noncardiac Surgery.

TL;DR: Among patients undergoing noncardiac surgery, the incidence of the composite bleeding outcome was significantly lower with tranexamic acid than with placebo, and the between-group difference in the composite cardiovascular outcome was small, the noninferiority of tranxamic acid was not established.
Journal ArticleDOI

Rationale and design of the PeriOperative ISchemic Evaluation-3 (POISE-3): a randomized controlled trial evaluating tranexamic acid and a strategy to minimize hypotension in noncardiac surgery

TL;DR: The PeriOperative Ischemic Evaluation (POISE)-3 Trial as mentioned in this paper was designed to determine if tranexamic acid (TXA) is superior to placebo for the composite outcome of life-threatening, major, and critical organ bleeding, and non-inferior to the placebo for occurrence of major arterial and venous thrombotic events, at 30 days after randomization.
