Perioperative morbidity in patients randomized to epidural or general anesthesia for lower extremity vascular surgery

TL;DR: Compared with general anesthesia, epidural anesthesia is associated with a lower incidence of reoperatlon for inadequate tissue perfusion and, therefore, may be advantageous for this surgical population.
Journal ArticleDOI

Enteral omega-3 fatty acid, gamma-linolenic acid, and antioxidant supplementation in acute lung injury.

TL;DR: Twice-daily enteral supplementation of n-3 fatty acids, γ-linolenic acid, and antioxidants did not improve the primary end point of ventilator-free days or other clinical outcomes in patients with acute lung injury and may be harmful.
Journal ArticleDOI

Haloperidol and Ziprasidone for Treatment of Delirium in Critical Illness

TL;DR: The use of haloperidol or ziprasidone, as compared with placebo, in patients with acute respiratory failure or shock and hypoactive or hyperactive delirium in the ICU did not significantly alter the duration of delirity.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Effects of Different Anesthetic Regimens on Fibrinolysis and the Development of Postoperative Arterial Thrombosis

TL;DR: Because RA combined with epidural fentanyl analgesia appears to prevent postoperative inhibition of fibrinolysis, this form of perioperative management may decrease the risk of arterial thrombotic complications in patients undergoing lower extremity revascularization.
