Summary: This study retrospectively reviewed the records of 632 patients undergoing cesarean section and prescribed IVPCA. The study found that setting an appropriate initial IVA regimen with a basal rate infusion significantly reduced the rate of second prescription, but increased the incidence of complications. Therefore, for postoperative pain management in cesarean section patients, it is important to properly set the initial IVA regimen.

Summary: This study investigated the risk factors for discontinuing intravenous patient-controlled analgesia (IV PCA) due to side effects after general surgery. The findings indicate that female sex, hepato-pancreatic-biliary surgery, and background infusion of PCA are associated with an increased likelihood of discontinuing PCA, while preoperative opioid use is linked to a decreased likelihood of discontinuation. Individualized pain management, considering patient characteristics and surgical procedures, is crucial.

Summary: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the impact of intraoperative intravenous lidocaine infusion on postoperative opioid consumption after laparoscopic cholecystectomy. A total of 98 patients scheduled for elective laparoscopic cholecystectomy were included and randomized. The study found that lidocaine did not reduce postoperative opioid consumption and had no effect on postoperative pain scores, incidence of shoulder pain, sedation levels, and nausea rates.

Summary: This study compares the use of intravenous and epidural routes for patient-controlled analgesia in abdominal surgery. The results show that there is no significant difference in pain control and side effects between the two methods. However, epidural analgesia is associated with a shorter length of hospital stay, while intravenous analgesia is associated with fewer episodes of hypotension.

Summary: The study aimed to determine the optimal bolus dose of oxycodone for patient controlled intravenous analgesia (PCIA) without background dose in elderly patients after laparoscopic surgery for gastrointestinal cancer. The results showed that the VAS scores of pain on mobilization and the total and effective numbers of press in PCIA were lower in the 0.02 mg/kg and 0.03 mg/kg groups compared to the 0.01 mg/kg group. Therefore, a bolus dose of 0.02 mg/kg of oxycodone in PCIA without background infusion may be a better choice for elderly patients undergoing laparoscopic surgery for gastrointestinal cancer.

Summary: This study aimed to evaluate the analgesic effects of ultrasound-guided ESP versus QL block during laparoscopic cholecystectomy. The results showed that both ESP and QL blocks effectively reduced VAS scores and decreased the consumption of analgesics in the first 24 postoperative hours, with ESP block providing a longer duration of analgesia.

Summary: This study aimed to establish an optimal protocol for preoperative endoscopic submucosal ICG injection for multifunctional ICG applications during fluorescence-guided laparoscopic colorectal surgery. Results showed that the success rate was highest with an ICG dose of 0.5 to 1 mg, suggesting this dose range as the optimal choice for FLNM, fluorescent tumor localization, and ICG angiography.

Summary: Neurogenesis confirmed in rat models with cerebral arterial ischemia but unclear for cerebral venous ischemia. Using rat models created by two-vein occlusion, neurogenesis was evaluated by immunohistochemistry. The study found significant numbers of newly generated neurons and precursors in the ischemic area, suggesting that the cortex could be the main origin of neurogenesis after cortical venous ischemia.
