Objective: There are very few studies on the use of a thermomechanical device for reducing injection pain in pediatric dentistry, especially for inferior alveolar nerve blocks (IANBs). The purpose of this study was to assess the efficacy of a thermomechanical device (Buzzy, Pain Care Labs) for reducing pain associated with an IANB for pediatric dental patients.

Methods: A total of 30 children, 5 to 8 years of age undergoing bilateral mandibular dental treatment requiring IANBs, were included in this randomized crossover study.

Intensive care unit (ICU)-acquired muscle atrophy and weakness are key contributors to post-intensive care syndrome (PICS), which can lead to long-term functional impairments. Although the ICU survival rate has improved, many patients continue to experience persistent functional impairments that hinder their reintegration into society. This review summarizes a series of observational and interventional studies conducted as part of the Muscle Atrophy Zero Project, focusing on the etiology, assessment, and prevention of ICU-acquired muscle atrophy and weakness.
