The Latest

With new technology, we can check emails and access the internet at anytime. But should you be using your smartphone or laptop while at work? Is this a distraction or multi-tasking? Read how this can affect performance and vigilance in the operating theatre.

Did you know that mortality and complication rates in elderly patients are affected by whether they are living independently or in a care facility prior to surgery? With life expectancy increasing and the baby boomer generation now entering retirement the number of elderly patients presenting for surgery is increasing. An editorial and original paper focus on this concern.

Read about new developments in patient care including a useful new coma scale in acute stroke patients, a technique for post-pyloric feeding tube placement by palpitation in lean critically ill patients and a technique to reduce shivering during spinal anaesthesia in children.

If you enjoy reading the cover notes in each issue, you can now purchase the hardcover book Historical Notes on Anaesthesia and Intensive Care. With high quality images and cover notes from 1989 to 2011, this follows the development of anaesthesia and equipment. It is great read showing the history and developments over the years and can also be used as a research tool, with a comprehensive index.
