Rescue analgesia with serratus anterior plane block improved pain relief after thoracic surgery
CONCLUSIONS: Rescue analgesia with SAPB on the first postoperative day had a greater effect on pain relief and oxygenation after VATS. However, its long-term effect on chronic pain requires further research.PMID:38019172 | DOI:10.23736/S0375-9393.23.17688-7 (Source: Minerva Anestesiologica)

Effects of midline laparotomy on cough strength: a prospective study measuring cough pressure
CONCLUSIONS: Although thoracic epidural bupivacaine reduces cough strength as measured by PCOUGH, midline laparotomy does not further reduce strength in the presence of adequate epidural analgesia.PMID:38019173 | DOI:10.23736/S0375-9393.23.17519-5 (Source: Minerva Anestesiologica)

Effectiveness and safety of prehospital analgesia including nalbuphine and paracetamol by paramedics: an observational study
CONCLUSIONS: Prehospital analgesia by paramedics with nalbuphine as monotherapy or in combination with paracetamol allows for sufficient analgesia without the occurrence of complications.PMID:38019174 | DOI:10.23736/S0375-9393.23.17537-7 (Source: Minerva Anestesiologica)

Beyond the self: a novel framework to enhance non-technical team skills for anesthesiologists
Minerva Anestesiol. 2023 Dec;89(12):1115-1126. doi: 10.23736/S0375-9393.23.16729-0.ABSTRACTHuman factors and non-technical skills (NTS) have been identified as essential contributors to both the propagation and prevention of medical errors in the operating room. Despite extensive study and interventions to nurture and enhance NTS in anesthesiologists, gaps to effective team practice and patient safety remain. Furthermore, the link between added NTS training and clinically significant improved outcomes has not yet been demonstrated. We performed a narrative review to summarize the literature on existing systems and initiati...

COVID-19 and musculoskeletal pain: an overview of the current knowledge
Minerva Anestesiol. 2023 Dec;89(12):1134-1142. doi: 10.23736/S0375-9393.23.17471-2.ABSTRACTThe Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) has provoked billions of infections worldwide. Several meta-analyses have observed that up to 50% of individuals who had survived to a SARS-CoV-2 acute infection suffer from post-COVID symptoms lasting for weeks or months and up to one year after infection. The prevalence of post-COVID pain ranges between 10% to 20% when assessed with other overall post-COVID symptoms and can reach up to 50% to 60% when investigated specific...
