A multicenter analysis of registry data on postoperative orthopedic pain: a retrospective cohort study.

Background: Postoperative pain can lead to complications, prolonged hospital stays, and increased healthcare costs. Orthopedic surgeries are particularly associated with severe pain. This study aimed to identify orthopedic procedures that cause severe pain in hospitalized patients within 72 h post-surgery.

The influence of anaesthetic choice on seizure duration of electroconvulsive therapy; etomidate versus methohexital.

Background: Many of the anaesthetic drugs used for electroconvulsive therapy have anticonvulsant properties and may influence efficacy of electroconvulsive therapy. With this study we aim to provide more information on the effect of etomidate and methohexital on seizure duration. We explore the relationship between induction drug, motor and electroencephalography seizure duration.
