Rebound pain-From definition to treatment
DISCUSSION: A total of 22 original papers from the years 2005-2021 were evaluated regarding the differences between the definitions of rebound pain, the assumption of its occurrence as well as possible treatment options. It turns out that there is no uniform definition by the professional societies, the pathophysiology has not yet been clearly identified and no clear recommendations for prophylaxis or treatment can be given to date; however, early administration of pain medication (e.g. NSAIDs) before the end of the nerve block has proven to be helpful. Likewise, dexamethasone as an adjuvant to regional anaesthesia shows p...

Current approaches to anesthetic management in thoracic surgery-An evaluation from the German Thoracic Registry
CONCLUSION: Our data indicate that less invasive thoracic operations are associated with a reduction of invasive anesthetic procedures. As the presented data are descriptive, further studies are required to determine the impact of invasive anesthetic procedures on patient-related outcomes. This evaluation of the anesthetic management in experienced thoracic anesthesiology departments represents the next step towards establishing national quality standards and promoting structural quality in thoracic anesthesia.PMID:35507027 | DOI:10.1007/s00101-022-01093-z (Source: Der Anaesthesist)

Promoting young academics in anesthesiology: factors for an attractive internship
DISCUSSION: The positively evaluated anesthesiology internship promotes later specialty choice, with quality and structure of the teaching affecting student satisfaction. Trainees who were attracted by anesthesiology gave better overall ratings and acquired more skills during the course of the internship. In order to win aspiring doctors for anesthesiology, the medical team has to integrate trainees well and support the acquisition of practical skills and specialist knowledge. In addition, didactics and practical relevance should be given high priority.PMID:35507045 | DOI:10.1007/s00101-021-00936-5 (Source: Der Anaesthesist)

Liposomal bupivacaine-No breakthrough in postoperative pain management

Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTOne of the main limitations concerning the use of local anesthetics is due to their restricted duration of action. In recent years, liposomal formulations with prolonged release kinetics have been developed to extend the pharmacological duration of action of the 1‑stage peripheral regional anesthesia (single-shot procedure) and thus bring about a longer duration of action. The focus here is particularly on achieving postoperative freedom from pain for at least 24 h (or even better 48 h) and thus early mobilization of patients using ...
