Does the revised cardiac risk index predict cardiac complications following elective lung resection? [PDF]
Background: Revised Cardiac Risk Index (RCRI) score and Thoracic Revised Cardiac Risk Index (ThRCRI) score were developed to predict the risks of postoperative major cardiac complications in generic surgical population and thoracic surgery respectively.

Association between Intraoperative Hyperlactatemia and Myocardial Injury after Noncardiac Surgery
Background: Oxygen demand–supply mismatch is supposed to be one of the major causes of myocardial injuries after noncardiac surgery (MINS). Impaired tissue oxygenation during the surgery can lead to intraoperative hyperlactatemia.

Clinical review: Can we predict which patients are at risk of complications following surgery? [PDF]
There are a vast number of operations carried out every year, with a small proportion of patients being at highest risk of mortality and morbidity. There has been considerable work to try and identify these high-risk patients.

Cognitive dysfunction following desflurane versus sevoflurane general anesthesia in elderly patients: a randomized controlled trial. [PDF]
UnlabelledAs life expectancy increases, more patients ≥65 years undergo general anesthesia. Anesthetic agents may contribute to postoperative cognitive dysfunction, and incidence may differ with anesthetic agents or intraoperative anesthesia depth ...
