Abstract Background The world faces a significant global health threat – climate change, which makes creating more environmentally sustainable healthcare systems necessary. As resource-intensive specialty, anesthesiology contributes to substantial fraction of healthcare’s environmental impact. This alarming situation invites us reconsider the ecological determinants and calls action. Methods We conducted single-center qualitative study involving an online survey explore sustainability from...
Summary The escalating epidemic of burnout in healthcare professionals affects provider well‐being, patient care and sustainability systems. objective this study was to determine the prevalence among anaesthesia providers (consultants, trainees or nurse anaesthetists) Switzerland identify risk factors develop strategies for prevention. This multicentre cross‐sectional conducted at 22 departments German‐speaking part Switzerland, using an online questionnaire. Burnout assessment performed...
Viscoelastic point-of-care haemostatic resuscitation methods, such as ROTEM or TEG, are crucial in deciding on time-efficient personalised coagulation interventions. International transfusion guidelines emphasise increased patient safety and reduced treatment costs. We analysed care providers' perceptions of to identify perceived strengths areas for improvement. conducted a single-centre, mixed qualitative-quantitative study consisting interviews followed by an online survey. Using template...
The Philips Visual Patient Avatar, a user-centered visualization technology, offers an alternative approach to patient monitoring. Computer-based simulation studies indicate that it increases diagnostic accuracy and confidence, while reducing perceived workload. About three months after the technology’s integration into clinical practice, we conducted assessment among anesthesia providers determine their views on its strengths, limitations, overall perceptions. This single-center qualitative...
Iron deficiency anemia in the perioperative setting is treated predominantly with intravenous iron formulation, of which ferric carboxymaltose may induce hypophosphatemia by modulating fibroblast growth factor 23.
Philips Visual Patient Avatar represents an alternative method of patient monitoring that, according to computer-based simulation studies, enhances diagnostic accuracy, confidence and reduces workload. After its clinical integration, we assessed pediatric anesthesia providers' perspectives on this technology. This is a single-center qualitative study, conducted at the University Hospital Zurich using in-depth individual interviews. We aimed identify advantages limitations in assess...
Blood gas analysis plays a central role in modern medicine. Advances technology have expanded the range of available parameters and increased complexity their interpretation. By applying user-centered design principles, it is possible to reduce cognitive load associated with interpreting blood analysis. In this international, multicenter study, we explored anesthesiologists' perspectives on Visual Blood, novel visualization technique for presenting results. We conducted interviews...
Visual Patient Avatar ICU is an innovative approach to patient monitoring, enhancing the user’s situation awareness in intensive care settings. It dynamically displays patient’s current vital signs using changes color, shape, and animation. The technology can also indicate patient-inserted devices, such as arterial lines, central urinary catheters, along with their insertion locations. We conducted international, multi-center study a sequential qualitative-quantitative design evaluate users’...

Abstract Patient monitoring in the perioperative setting can be challenging, especially when multiple patients simultaneously or managing dynamic situations that require movement around operating room. We aimed to evaluate whether avatar-based patient monitoring, which presents vital signs form of changing colors, shapes and motion, improves remote sign recognition compared conventional monitoring. conducted a prospective, single-center, computer-based simulation study how anesthesia...

Cavernous malformations are recognized as the most common vascular anomalies in brain, that often lead to hemorrhage with neurological symptoms. Usually treatment is surgical removal or stereotactic radiotherapy. We present a case of slow-flow anomaly located cavernous sinus recurrent partial thrombotic areas. Inspired by peripheral venous antithrombotic therapy was initiated instead surgery This led complete spontaneous resolution lesion and normalization symptoms within nine months. The...
