In this episode of NYSORA Updates in Anesthesiology, Dr. Hadzic reveals why the stellate ganglion block (SGB) has re-emerged as a hot topic in perioperative medicine. Drawing on a landmark 2025 narrative review from MD Anderson published in the British Journal of Anaesthesia, we explore what SGB can—and cannot—realistically offer today. From arrhythmia control and postoperative recovery to immune modulation and risk considerations, this episode delivers a balanced, evidence-based perspective to help anesthesiologists decide when SGB truly belongs in modern practice.

In this episode, we review the 2026 American Society of Anesthesiologists Practice Guideline on perioperative pain management using local and regional analgesia, based on evidence from more than 600 randomized trials. The guideline delivers a clear message: fascial plane blocks are a core component of modern multimodal analgesia, not an optional add-on. We discuss where the evidence is strongest, including open and minimally invasive abdominal surgery, mastectomy, cardiothoracic procedures, and pediatric surgery, and how these techniques consistently reduce opioid use, improve pain control, and enhance quality of recovery.

In this episode, we’re discussing a 2025 randomized controlled trial by Turunc and colleagues published in Regional Anesthesia & Pain Medicine. The study asks a practical, ERAS-focused question: Does adding a bilateral anterior subcostal quadratus lumborum block actually improve analgesia in laparoscopic colorectal surgery? And more importantly, does it meaningfully reduce opioids?

This episode discusses the main findings of a new study from Sajdeya et al., 2025, published in Regional Anesthesia & Pain Medicine. The research asks a timely, important question: Does cannabis use affect postoperative pain in older adults? We've seen rising cannabis use among seniors, up to 5% nationally, but almost no data on how it affects acute surgical pain. This study finally gives us real evidence, using advanced NLP to detect cannabis use in the electronic record. And the findings? Well... they challenge a lot of assumptions.

This episode discusses the main findings from a 2025 review by Suleiman et al. published in BJA, examining how we should manage direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs) in patients having neuraxial anesthesia and deep peripheral nerve blocks. Traditionally, the ASRA guidelines have leaned heavily on long DOAC interruption times and selective drug level testing to avoid the rare but devastating complication of spinal epidural hematoma. But new evidence—from the PAUSE strategy and the PAUSE-2 pilot trial—suggests that shorter, pharmacokinetics-based DOAC holds may offer comparable safety without increasing thromboembolic risk.

The Difficult Airway Society’s 2025 guidelines reshape how we approach unanticipated difficult tracheal intubation in adults. From first-attempt success and videolaryngoscopy for all, to peroxygenation, physiologically difficult airways, linear algorithms, and a renewed emphasis on human factors.

In this episode of Updates in Anesthesiology, Dr. Hadzic discusses a 2025 Anesthesia & Analgesia trial that challenges a long-standing airway management routine.Could high-flow nasal oxygen (HFNO) replace the laryngeal mask airway (LMA) for short general anesthesia cases without muscle paralysis? This randomized trial puts it to the test, reporting surprising results on safety, comfort, and carbon dioxide dynamics. Stick around as we unpack the science, the caveats, and what this could mean for the future of low-invasive airway management.

Mixing speeds onset but slashes duration by nearly 14 hours. Tune in to learn why faster isn’t always better, how adjuvants like dexamethasone already optimize your block, and when it’s finally time to ditch the mix.

A 2025 Anesthesiology meta-analysis shows that the best pain control after total hip arthroplasty comes from combining regional anesthesia with local infiltration analgesia (LIA). While LIA alone is effective, adding a quadratus lumborum or pericapsular nerve group (PENG) block significantly improves pain relief, reduces opioid use, and preserves mobility. The takeaway: stop choosing between techniques — regional + local is the new gold standard for hip surgery analgesia.

In this episode of Updates in Anesthesiology, Dr. Hadzic unpacks a landmark 2025 study, which challenges the long-held belief that intraoperative hypotension (MAP < 65 mm Hg) contributes to postoperative delirium in older adults. With nearly 40,000 patients analyzed and no association found, it’s time to rethink reflexively chasing MAP thresholds. Tune in to hear why blood pressure might not be the villain we thought, and what really matters for preventing POD.

In this episode of Updates in Anesthesiology, Dr. Hadzic delves into a 2025 study, which analyzed over 53,000 surgical cases. The key finding? Neuromuscular blockers increase the risk of postoperative delirium in older adults, unless they’re properly reversed. Whether you use sugammadex or neostigmine, reversal agents significantly reduce this risk. Tune in to hear what this means for your clinical practice and how small changes in perioperative management can make a significant impact on cognitive outcomes.

In this episode, Dr. Hadzic discusses the main findings from a new study from the British Journal of Anaesthesia (2025). The study reported that 1 in 4 children having noncardiac surgery has preoperative anemia, and that both anemia and transfusion independently, and especially together, increase 30-day mortality and complications. Despite strong global guidelines for blood management and anesthesia care in adults, pediatric blood management remains under-implemented. Learn how this data can transform your pre-op protocols, and what steps you can take right now to improve pediatric surgical outcomes.
