An Anesthesia-Centered Bundle to Reduce Postoperative Pulmonary Complications: The PRIME-AIR Study (PRIME-AIR)
Postoperative pulmonary complications (PPCs) are a major cause of morbidity and mortality in surgical patients. National estimates suggest 1,062,000 PPCs per year, with 46,200 deaths, and 4.8 million additional days of hospitalization. The objective of the study is to develop and implement perioperative strategies to eliminate PPCs in abdominal surgery, …

Pragmatic Trial Examining Oxygenation Prior to Intubation (PREOXI)
Clinicians perform rapid sequence induction, laryngoscopy, and tracheal intubation for more than 5 million critically ill adults as a part of clinical care each year in the United States. One-in-ten emergency tracheal intubations is complicated by life-threatening hypoxemia. Administering supplemental oxygen prior to induction and intubation ("preoxygenation") decreases the risk …

Intubating Conditions During Rapid Sequence Induction in Elderly With Either Suxamethonium 1.0 mg/kg or Rocuronium 1.0 mg/kg
The aim of this study is to determine the proportion of excellent tracheal intubation conditions at 60 seconds after administration of either rocuronium 1.0 mg/kg or suxamethonium 1 mg/kg in patients with age ≥ 80 years during rapid sequence induction.

The Impact of Deep Versus Standard Muscle Relaxation on Intra-operative Safety During Laparoscopic Surgery: a Multicenter Strategy Study (EURORELAX)
Muscle relaxants are routinely applied during anesthesia to facilitate endotracheal intubation and to improve surgical working conditions. Several investigations have shown that a deep neuromuscular block (NMB) improves the surgical working conditions over a moderate NMB and effectively precludes sudden deterioration of the surgical field. However, whether the improvement of …

Cooling to Help Injured Lungs (CHILL) Phase IIB Randomized Control Trial of Therapeutic Hypothermia in Patients With ARDS (CHILL)
cardiac arrest may be lung protective in patients with ARDS; however, shivering is a major complication of TH, often requiring paralysis with neuromuscular blocking agents (NMBA) to control. Since the

Early Use of Airway Pressure Release Ventilation (APRV) in ARDS
Airway pressure release ventilation (APRV) is a time-cycled, pressure controlled, intermittent mandatory ventilation mode with extreme inverse I:E ratios. Currently it is considered as a non-conventional ventilatory mode. The investigators aim to compare APRV with conventional mechanical ventilation (MV) in patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS).
