DOI: 10.1002/gps.5942
Abstract: OBJECTIVES Postoperative delirium (POD) is a common postsurgical complication. The early identification of its risk factors is the first step toward reducing POD. The predictive factors for POD in patients after major abdominal surgery remain… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s00383-022-05081-7
Abstract: Maintenance fluids following major operations in children are typically administered with a continuous rate. We hypothesized that administering fluids as intermittent boluses is more physiologic and could limit post-operative fluid volume, thereby avoiding harmful effects… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s00540-018-2591-8
Abstract: PurposeIn contrast to that in a nonoperative setting, it has been shown that perioperative administration of aspirin did not decrease the rate of death or myocardial infarction but increased major bleeding risk. Since these conflicting… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s10877-022-00857-7
Abstract: The risk of pulmonary complications is high after major abdominal surgery but may be reduced by prophylactic postoperative noninvasive ventilation using continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP). This study compared the effects of intermittent mask CPAP… read more here.
