Background
The advent of Artificial Intelligence (AI) has sparked a revolution in medical research. ChatGPT is a generative AI chatbot powered by a large language model (LLM), which allows it to process natural text input using extensive training data and output a human-like response. This study aimed to assess the capability of ChatGPT, a languag...
Background
Excessive opioid prescribing following surgery contributes to the growing opioid crisis. Prescribing practices are modifiable, yet data to guide appropriate prescription of opioids at surgical discharge remain sparse. This study aimed to evaluate factors associated with opioid consumption following discharge from surgery.
Methods
An int...
Background
Tourniquets are common adjuncts in the operating theatre but can be associated with post-operative pain. This study was designed to compare what effect pre-tourniquet Esmarch bandage exsanguination has on pain, compared to pre-tourniquet exsanguination by elevation alone.
Methods
52 volunteers (104 lower limbs) were included in this stu...
Background
Balancing opioid stewardship and the need for adequate analgesia following discharge after surgery is challenging. This study aimed to compare the outcomes for patients discharged with opioid versus opioid-free analgesia after common surgical procedures.
Methods
This international, multicentre, prospective cohort study collected data fr...
Purpose
Adductor canal block has emerged as a favourable element of multimodal analgesia regimens for total knee arthroplasty, due to the exclusive sensory blockade it provides. However, it is controversial as to whether a single shot or continuous technique adductor canal block is superior. This meta-analysis examined the effect of both these tech...
Magnetic nanozymes with peroxidase-mimicking activity have been widely investigated for developing molecular biosensors. Herein, we report a starch-assisted method for the synthesis of a novel class of carboxyl group-functionalized iron oxide nanoparticles (C-IONPs). Scanning electron and transmission electron microscopy analysis revealed that the...
