Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Anesthesiology is an essential part of surgery and crucial in ensuring patient safety and promoting high-quality recovery after surgery. In recent years, the concept of anesthesiology has evolved into perioperative medicine, which encompasses preoperative evaluation, intraoperative anesthesia management, and enhanced recovery after surgery. Despite advancements in the field of surgery and anesthesia, the perioperative mortality rate remains high at 1.4% in the United States and 4% in Europe. Chronic pain affects 30% of patients, and perioperative stroke affects 10%.
The aim of this Special Issue is to bring together researchers in the field of anesthesiology and perioperative medicine to address the novel challenges and advances in the field. The scope of the Special Issue includes but is not limited to:
- Overview of recent research trends and hotspots in anesthesiology and pain management.
- Preclinical research focused on neuroscience to understand the mechanisms of anesthesia and pain-related topics, including general anesthesia, pain development, postoperative cognitive decline, stroke, and sepsis.
- Clinical research, including new methods and concepts for perioperative management and prevention of anesthesia-related topics.
- Other works discussing novel challenges and advancements in anesthesiology and pain management.
We encourage researchers to submit cutting-edge research on advancements in anesthesiology and pain management and to provide their own thoughts and insights. We especially welcome preclinical research that offers innovative ideas and potential targets for individual therapy.
