Thermal Skin Burns Following Infrared Vein Finder Application In Pediatric Patients: A Report Of 2 Cases And Protocol Revision, Sujata S. Rawlani, Nandini Banad, Jenil Sheth, Raja Narsingrao
HCA Healthcare Journal of Medicine
Background
Peripheral venous cannulation remains a cornerstone of pediatric anesthesia practice. Infrared vein finder devices have gained popularity as aids to improve venous visualization in children with difficult access. However, the thermal hazards associated with certain device types, particularly pocket flashlight-based models, remain underappreciated among clinical staff.
Case Presentation
We report 2 pediatric patients who sustained grade 2 thermal burns at peripheral venous access sites following the use of a pocket flashlight-based infrared vein finder during ophthalmic surgical procedures. The first patient, an 8-month-old girl born at term with appropriate developmental milestones undergoing congenital cataract surgery, developed a ruptured blister …

Opioid Free Anesthesia In Arthroscopic Knee Surgery: A Feasible Approach To Patient Care, Carson Gifford, Denise Vidal, Dail Kim, Austin Goff, Paul Reynolds
HCA Healthcare Journal of Medicine
Background
The opioid epidemic has prompted exploration of opioid-free anesthesia (OFA) techniques, but the optimal approach is still debated. While some OFA protocols substitute opioids with other agents, these alternatives can introduce their own risks. The objective of this study was to investigate whether eliminating intraoperative opioids without analgesic substitution in arthroscopic knee procedures affects postoperative pain control and opioid requirements.
Methods
We conducted a retrospective analysis of 205 patients who underwent arthroscopic knee procedures between August and November 2023. Patients were divided into 2 groups: those who received intraoperative fentanyl (25-200 mcg, n = 144) and those who received …

Rethinking Acute Pain Management: Evidence For Suzetrigine As An Opioid-Sparing Strategy In Outpatient Care, Shana-Kay Lambert-Johnson, Tasaduq Mir
North Texas GME Research Forum 2026
BACKGROUND: The ongoing opioid epidemic underscores the urgent need for effective nonopioid options for acute pain management. Suzetrigine, a selective voltage-gated sodium channel NaV1.8 inhibitor, represents a mechanistically novel analgesic targeting peripheral nociception and may reduce reliance on opioid therapy. It received FDA approval on January 30, 2025, for the treatment of moderate-to-severe acute pain in adults. This evidence-based review evaluates the efficacy and safety of suzetrigine as an opioid-sparing option for outpatient acute pain management.
METHODS: A structured literature search of PubMed was conducted from database inception through January 2026 using the terms “suzetrigine” and “NaV1.8.” Eligible studies were …

North Texas GME Research Forum 2026
Introduction
Intraosseous (IO) analgesia is a novel strategy for pain control in orthopaedic surgery. This brief review aims to provide an overview of IO analgesia in orthopaedic surgery.
Methods
A search was conducted across seven databases. Titles and abstracts were screened followed by full-text review for inclusion criteria. Demographics and results were extracted from included articles.
Results
Ten studies met inclusion criteria and involved patients undergoing knee surgery and spinal surgery. IO lidocaine was shown to be effective for postoperative and intraprocedural pain control during vertebroplasty and kyphoplasty. IO morphine and IO NSAIDs were shown to be effective in reducing …
Nitrous Oxide Vs. Ketamine: Impacts On Pediatric Emergency Department Length Of Stay, Tabitha Brock, Anna Suessman
Nitrous Oxide Vs. Ketamine: Impacts On Pediatric Emergency Department Length Of Stay, Tabitha Brock, Anna Suessman
North Texas GME Research Forum 2026
Background Nitrous oxide (N₂O) is a well-established analgesic and anxiolytic agent, widely used for procedural sedation in pediatric dentistry. Despite its demonstrated safety and efficacy, its use in Pediatric Emergency Departments (PEDs) remains limited and underexplored. To address this gap, we implemented a comprehensive training program for PED providers and introduced N₂O as an alternative sedation agent.
Objective We hypothesized that using N₂O for procedural sedation would significantly reduce patient length of stay (LOS) without compromising safety or outcomes.
Methods We conducted a retrospective chart review of pediatric patients who underwent painful procedures in a tertiary children’s hospital emergency department. …

Family Medicine
In recent years, the opioid epidemic has been a key catalyst in changing the medical standards for treating both acute and chronic pain. Instead of relying heavily on narcotics for pain management, practitioners are not encouraged to adapt a non-pharmacologic, non-opioid approach to analgesia. While many guidelines have been set to standardize outpatient pain management, the rules surrounding inpatient analgesia are limited or lacking.

Anesthesiology
69M with a PMH of parotid gland carcinoma status post resection and radiation therapy with extensive reconstruction, G-tube placement, COPD, multiple tracheostomies with takedowns (with refusal permanent tracheostomy over objections of family members) presented for CTR and ulnar tunnel exploration. With plans of MAC, an axillary block was placed and maintained on minimal propofol infusion. After administration of 50 mcg fentanyl due to pain, he was noted to be apnic. Ventilation via mask and #3 LMA failed, as well as placement of an 6 mm ET tube. Eventually, patient was ventilated via emergency surgical cricothyroidotomy. He was discharged on POD4.
