Periop myocardial injury (PMI) is associated with major cardio- & cerebrovascular events (MACCE). Periop #hs-cTnT rise, regardless of baseline, is associated with high risk of MACCE, sustained up to 3 years post-op #bjaopen www.bjaopen.org/article/S2772-6096(25)00...
ICU organ support decisions are shaped by team structure, communication, hierarchy, experience & culture. Understanding these factors improves protocols, training & culture, supporting better MDT decisions in the ICU #bjaopen www.bjaopen.org/article/S2772-6096(25)00...

Most surgical procedures operate at a financial loss, and postop complications further increase expenditure three-fold. This new study by Watson et al. highlights the need to improve efficiency to support service delivery. www.bjanaesthesia.org/article/S0007-0912(25)00...
Deaths from local anesthetic systemic toxicity have declined for long-acting agents, but remain steady for #lidocaine. Findings highlight the need for broader education and vigilance in lidocaine use across specialties.
