Background Tracheal intubation is a critical procedure in anesthesia and intensive care. However, despite international campaigns emphasizing the use of capnography to confirm tracheal intubation, unrecognized esophageal intubation continues to result in patient deaths. Esophageal intubation is an avoidable and potentially fatal complication, espec...

External Validation of Preoperative Risk Scores for 30-Day In-Hospital Mortality in Pediatric Patients Academic Background Although the perioperative mortality rate in pediatric patients is low (<0.5%), it remains a significant issue in clinical practice. Traditional risk assessment tools, such as the American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) Phy...

Effect of Perioperative Blood Transfusion on Preoperative Haemoglobin Levels as a Risk Factor for Long-Term Outcomes in Patients Undergoing Major Noncardiac Surgery: A Prospective Multicentre Observational Study

Academic Background Preoperative anemia and red blood cell (RBC) transfusions are closely associated with poorer surgical outcomes. Although RBC transfusions can increase oxygen delivery, they are also linked to an increased risk of infectious complications, thromboembolic events, pneumonia, sepsis, cardiac events, and mortality. Therefore, when st...
