About Update in Anaesthesia

Update in Anaesthesia is the official education journal of the WFSA. First published in 1992, the aim of this journal has always been to provide clear, concise and clinically-relevant overview articles for anaesthetists working with limited resources around the world. A particular emphasis has been to provide ongoing learning and support for anaesthetists practising in countries where facilities for clinical practice and educational development are scarce.
The printed version of Update is sent free-of-charge to over 3000 English-speaking anaesthetists and is also translated into Russian, Mandarin, Spanish and French. Update has always been available via the internet for free download, both as full editions and as individual articles and we hope that the availability of this resource will be broadened further with the development of this section of the WFSA website.
The editorial board are committed to producing a first class peer-reviewed journal, and from edition 24,1 Update’scontents has been expanded to include original contributions in the form of brief reports of clinical studies, audits and case reports. ‘From the journals’ aims to keep readers informed of important and relevant publications from other journals, and ‘Cerebral challenge’ contains examples of abnormal Xrays, CT scans and ECGs for interpretation by our readers.
We are dependent on the generosity of the WFSA Publications committee budget to fund our work and on the unpaid volunteers who give up their time to help produce the journal. I would be delighted to be contacted by new authors and encourage those who are interested to look at the Guide to contributors (below). We hope that you enjoy the journal, and that you accept the challenge of continuing to strive to develop the standards of anaesthesia internationally. This will improve outcomes for our patients and consequently the standing of our profession.

Systemic Lidocaine Decreased the Perioperative Opioid Analgesic Requirements but Failed to Reduce Discharge Time After Ambulatory Surgery

Par
Perioperative systemic lidocaine significantly reduces opioid requirements in the ambulatory setting without affecting time to discharge. Postoperative pain is the most common reason for delay in discharge and unplanned hospital admission after ambulatory surgery. 1–3 Because postoperative pain is to a large extent an inflammatory phenomenon, administration of systemic local anesthetics, which have inflammatory modulatory properties, 4 could significantly reduce pain and therefore allow more rapid discharge. 5 Lidocaine has an excellent safety record when administered by low-dose infusion. 5–7 However, whereas decreased hospital stay after inpatient surgery has been demonstrated, the effect of intraoperative and early postoperative lidocaine infusion on duration of stay after ambulatory surgery is not known. Although it see...

Government Health Policy and Nurse Anesthetists

Par
Recent federal legislation and changes to the U.S. Medicare program have expanded opportunities for certified registered nurse anesthetists (CRNAs) to provide care to more patients and receive reimbursement for their services, yet many states still restrict their scope of practice and limit their pay. A special section in the current issue of  Clinical Scholars Review , the journal of advanced practice nursing published by Columbia Nursing, explores how the Affordable Care Act (ACA) empowers CRNAs to help make anesthesia services more accessible to patients; it also highlights laws in New York and other states that may impede the expanded access to care envisioned by ACA.
