Article Abstract

Background: Postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) are common complications following general anesthesia, particularly in gynecological laparoscopic surgeries. This study aims to evaluate the effect of intraoperative noise isolation on PONV incidence.

Method: This single-center, prospective, randomized controlled trial will enroll 192 adult patients undergoing laparoscopic gynecological surgery. Patients will be randomly assigned in a 1:1 ratio and stratified by age into either the control group (Group C), without noise-cancelling headphones, or a noise reduction group (Group NR), using noise-cancelling headphones from anesthesia induction until the end of surgery. All patients will receive intraoperative dexamethasone and ondansetron prophylaxis. The primary outcome is the incidence of PONV within 48 h post-surgery. Secondary outcomes include PONV severity at 24 and 48 h, antiemetic use, pain scores, need for rescue analgesia, Quality of Recovery-15 (QoR-15) scores, Richards-Campbell Sleep Questionnaire (RCSQ) scores, hemodynamic interventions, extubation time, length of stay in PACU and hospital, adverse events (hypertension, hypotension, bradycardia, tachycardia, desaturation after extubation, postoperative shivering, emergence agitation, allergic reactions, severe arrhythmias arrhythmia, cardiac arrest, hypothermia), patient satisfaction, and postoperative complications based on the Postoperative Morbidity Survey (POMS). Analyses will be conducted using modified intention-to-treat (mITT) and per-protocol (PP) populations.

Discussion: We hypothesize that intraoperative use of noise-cancelling headphones will reduce PONV incidence in patients undergoing gynecological laparoscopic surgery. The findings could enhance postoperative care protocols for thoracoscopic gynecological procedures.

Trial Registration: Chinese Clinical Trial Registry (ChiCTR2400087460).

Even though uterine fibroids are a widespread condition, the range of approved medical treatment options remains limited. In fact, only a few drugs are officially approved for the therapy of fibroids. In both the USA and the European Medicines Agency region, selected gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) antagonists have been approved for this indication.

Background: Salvage surgery (SS) is one of the best treatment options for recurrent oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma (OPSCC) after prior definitive radiation.

Methods: A Medline literature search of articles on open (OSS) and transoral robotic surgery (TORS) for the treatment of recurrent OPSCC was performed. Surgical, functional, and oncological outcomes were analyzed and compared.

Background: To assess the efficacy and safety of tenecteplase in patients presenting within 24 hours of symptom onset with a large vessel occlusion and target mismatch on perfusion computed tomography.

Methods: ETERNAL-LVO was a prospective, randomized, open-label, blinded end point, phase 3, superiority trial where adult participants with a large vessel occlusion, presenting within 24 hours of onset with salvageable tissue on computed tomography perfusion, were randomized to tenecteplase 0.25 mg/kg or standard care across 11 primary and comprehensive stroke centers in Australia.

Unlabelled: Leptomeningeal metastasis (LM) is a severe complication of solid malignancies, including lung adenocarcinoma, characterized by poor prognosis and diagnostic challenges. This study assesses whether curvilinear peri-brainstem hyperintense signals on MRI are a characteristic feature of LM in lung adenocarcinoma patients.

Methods: This retrospective study analyzed data from multiple centers, encompassing lung adenocarcinoma patients with peri-brainstem curvilinear hyperintense signals on MRI between January 2016 and March 2022.
