Post‐Mortem Identification and Toxicological Findings of Fluetonitazepyne and Isotonitazepyne
In early 2025, five death cases in Finland tested positive for fluetonitazepyne and one for isotonitazepyne in urine drug screening. A peak corresponding to O‐dealkylated fluetonitazepyne, the 4‐OH‐nitazepyne metabolite, was present in all fluetonitazepyne‐positive urine samples and was later used in the identification of isotonitazepynein one fatal ...

Evaluation of Therapeutic Opioids in Hair of Neonatal and Pediatric Patients
This study investigated the incorporation of novel and traditional medically used opioids into the hair of 118 pediatric and neonatal patients. Concentrations (median [range]) in hair were as follows: fentanyl: 4.03 pg/mg [0.10–343], sufentanil: 0.31 pg/mg [0.10–8.64], remifentanil: 0.14 pg/mg [0.10–0.43], and morphine: 27.4 pg/mg [1.0–1870].

Anesthetic Induction with Fentanyl
The efficacy of fentanyl, 30 micrograms/kg, was evaluated as an anesthetic induction agent in 72 ASA I-III patients scheduled for 2-4-hr operations. The effect of preinduction pretreatment with pancuronium and/or diazepam and the incidence of loss of consciousness (anesthesia), recall, rigidity, abnormal muscle movements, and hemodynamic changes were ...

Research progress on the depth of anesthesia monitoring based on the electroencephalogram
Electroencephalogram (EEG) can noninvasive, continuous, and real‐time monitor the state of brain electrical activity, and the monitoring of EEG can reflect changes in the depth of anesthesia (DOA). The development of artificial intelligence can enable anesthesiologists to extract, analyze, and quantify DOA from complex EEG data.
