The global burden of infertility is significant and the evidence suggests it is increasing in prevalence worldwide. Assisted reproductive technologies (ARTs) are fertility related treatments used to achieve pregnancy which involve the manipulation of both oocytes and sperm. The specialty is rapidly growing and anaesthesia may be required for several stages in the ART cycle. Anaesthesiologists should appreciate the processes involved and how anaesthesia care can influence safe and effective treatment outcomes. In this review article we explain the key steps of the ART cycle and the role of anaesthesiologists in this process. We also highlight key patient considerations, the implications of remote site anaesthesia and the safety concerns with provision of sedation by non-anaesthesiologists. Finally we outline a typical anaesthetic technique used in our institution for transvaginal oocyte retrieval.
不孕不育症给全球造成了沉重的负担，而且有证据表明，这种疾病在全球的发病率正在不断上升。辅助生殖技术（ART）是用于实现怀孕的生育相关治疗方法，涉及卵细胞和精子的操作。该专业发展迅速，在 ART 周期的多个阶段都可能需要麻醉。麻醉医师应了解其中涉及的过程以及麻醉护理如何影响安全有效的治疗结果。在这篇综述文章中，我们将解释 ART 周期的关键步骤以及麻醉医师在此过程中的作用。我们还强调了患者的主要注意事项、远程现场麻醉的影响以及由非麻醉医师提供镇静的安全问题。最后，我们概述了本机构在经阴道取卵过程中使用的典型麻醉技术。

As the medical complexity of pregnant patients increases, the rate of maternal morbidity has risen. Maternal cardiovascular disease is a leading cause of maternal morbidity and mortality followed closely by sepsis and infection, both of which may be associated with respiratory failure. There has been an expansion in the application of extracorporeal life support in pregnant and peripartum patients which requires obstetric anesthesiologists to understand the indications, obstetric and medical considerations, relative advantages and potential complications of this invasive technology in this population. Obstetricians and anesthesiologists who care for women on the labor floor must strive to recognize at-risk and deteriorating patients, facilitate escalation of care when appropriate, and engage consultant teams to consider the need for extracorporeal support in high-risk circumstances. This article reviews the epidemiology, indications, specific considerations, potential complications, and outcomes of extracorporeal life support in pregnant and peripartum patients.

Carnitine Palmitoyl Transferase Type II (CPT II) deficiency is a disorder of fatty acid beta oxidation that causes decreased adenosine triphosphate (ATP) and ketone production during periods of fasting or high energy requirements. Labor and delivery can precipitate attacks for parturients with this disorder, causing hypoglycemia, muscle weakness, rhabdomyolysis, and kidney failure. Anesthetic management considers the delivery mode and anesthetic medications available to reduce these risks. We present the case of a pregnant patient with CPT II deficiency with labor epidural analgesia and a vaginal delivery, with alternative plans had a different delivery mode been required.
肉碱棕榈酰转移酶 II 型（CPT II）缺乏症是一种脂肪酸 beta 氧化障碍，会导致在禁食或高能量需求期间三磷酸腺苷（ATP）和酮体生成减少。患有这种疾病的产妇在分娩时会突然发病，导致低血糖、肌肉无力、横纹肌溶解和肾衰竭。麻醉管理应考虑分娩方式和可用的麻醉药物，以降低这些风险。我们介绍了一名患有 CPT II 缺乏症的孕妇的病例，她在分娩时接受了硬膜外镇痛并经阴道分娩，如果需要采用不同的分娩方式，她还可以选择其他方案。

Intraoperative and postoperative nausea and vomiting (IONV and PONV) are common during cesarean delivery (CD) with neuraxial anesthesia. Limited information exists on the antiemetic benefit of combined P6 acupoint stimulation with acupressure (P6 acupressure) and pharmacologic antiemetics on preventing IONV and PONV after CD. This study assessed the antiemetic efficacy of P6 acupressure compared to a non-P6 acupoint stimulation with acupressure (sham acupressure) in preventing IONV during CD. We performed a randomized double-blinded trial comparing the efficacy of intraprocedural P6 acupressure versus sham acupressure in preventing IONV during CD after following the Society for Obstetric Anesthesia and Perinatology enhanced recovery recommendations. Subjects were instructed to apply additional pressure at the acupressure sites when they perceived nausea. The primary outcome was the incidence of IONV, and the secondary outcome was the need for rescue antiemetic treatment. Ninety-nine P6 acupressure and 100 sham acupressure subjects were studied. There was no difference in the incidence of intraoperative nausea (67%), vomiting (17%), emesis episodes, or the need for rescue antiemetics intraoperatively. There were also no differences in the incidence of PONV and antiemetic treatment from PACU to discharge. At discharge, 70% of respondents reported experiencing nausea, but only 10% reported it affected self-care. Approximately 50% of the patients in both groups were satisfied with acupressure therapy. P6 acupressure did not reduce the incidence of IONV or PONV when combined with antiemetic therapy per enhanced recovery recommendations. There does not appear to be sufficient evidence to support using P6 acupressure for IONV prevention.

Background
Video-laryngoscopy is increasingly used during general anesthesia for emergency cesarean deliveries. Given the heightened risk of difficult tracheal intubation in obstetrics, addressing challenges in airway management is crucial. In this simulation study, we hypothesized that using a flexible bronchoscope would lead to securing the airway faster than the Eschmann introducer when either device is used in addition to video-laryngoscopy.
Methods
Twenty-eight anesthesia trainees (n=14/group) were randomized to use either one of the rescue devices and video-recorded in a simulated scenario of emergency cesarean delivery. The primary outcome was the time difference in establishing intubation; secondary outcomes were the differences in incidence of hypoxemia, need for bag and mask ventilation, and failed intubation between the two rescue devices.
Results
Mean (±SD) time to intubation using flexible bronchoscopy was shorter compared to using an Eschmann introducer (24 ± 10 vs 86 ± 35 s; P<0.0001; difference in mean 62 seconds, 95% CI 42 to 82 seconds). In the fiberoptic bronchoscopy group, there were no episodes of hypoxemia or need for bag and mask ventilation; in contrast both such events occurred frequently in the Eschmann introducer group (71%, 10/14); P=0.0002). All flexible bronchoscopy-aided intubations were established on the first attempt. The incidence of failed intubation was similar in both groups.
Conclusions
Our data from simulated emergency tracheal intubation suggest that flexible bronchoscopy combined with video-laryngoscopy results in faster intubation time than using an Eschmann introducer combined with video-laryngoscopy.

Cardiac arrhythmias are responsible for a significant portion of cardiovascular disease among pregnant people. As the incidence of arrhythmias in pregnancy continues to increase, anesthesiologists who care for obstetric patients should be experts managing arrhythmias in pregnancy. This article examines the most common arrhythmias encountered in pregnancy, including risk factors, diagnosis, and management strategies. Peripartum monitoring and labor analgesia recommendations are discussed. Additionally, management of cardioversion, management of pacemakers and implantable cardioverter-defibrillators, and advanced cardiac life support in the setting of pregnancy is reviewed.

Advances in medicine have enabled more patients with congenital heart disease (CHD) to become pregnant. However, these patients face significant challenges during the peripartum period. Current peripartum anesthesia guidelines for CHD patients mainly rely on case reports and small series. In this retrospective study at a high-volume tertiary care center, we analyzed peripartum anesthetic approaches, postpartum hemorrhage (PPH) incidence, and maternal outcomes in CHD patients stratified by the modified World Health Organization (mWHO) classification. Among 85 473 deliveries between 2009 and 2023, 409 occurred in 282 patients with CHD. Cesarean deliveries were significantly more frequent in mWHO class III, =0.005. Labor epidural analgesia was the most common analgesic modality for vaginal deliveries (epidural rate was 71.1% with no differences between mWHO classes). Anesthesia management for cesarean deliveries varied significantly by class <0.001. While spinal anesthesia was predominant in classes I and II, combined spinal-epidural anesthesia was more common in class III. PPH incidence was 6.4%, with no significant difference across classes, and no association was found between mWHO class severity and PPH risk (OR 0.97; 95% CI; 0.93 to 1.02, =0.2). Higher mWHO classes correlated with significantly higher intensive care unit (ICU) admission rates, longer hospital stays, and one-year cardiac hospitalizations. In this retrospective study on the peripartum anesthetic management and outcomes of CHD patients stratified by mWHO class, cases with greater mWHO class were more likely to deliver preterm, by cesarean delivery, with a combined spinal-epidural anesthetic and an arterial line placement for that cesarean delivery. They overall had a longer hospital stay and were more likely to be admitted to the ICU. However, the overall risk of PPH did not increase with mWHO class severity.
医学的进步让更多先天性心脏病（CHD）患者得以怀孕。然而，这些患者在围产期面临着巨大的挑战。目前针对先天性心脏病患者的围产期麻醉指南主要依赖于病例报告和小型系列研究。在这项在一家大容量三级医疗中心进行的回顾性研究中，我们分析了根据世界卫生组织（mWHO）修正分类法分层的 CHD 患者的围产期麻醉方法、产后出血（PPH）发生率和产妇预后。在2009年至2023年期间的85 473例分娩中，有409例发生在282名心脏病患者身上。在 mWHO 分级 III 中，剖宫产的发生率明显更高，=0.005。分娩硬膜外镇痛是阴道分娩最常见的镇痛方式（硬膜外镇痛率为 71.1%，mWHO 分级之间无差异）。不同级别的剖宫产麻醉管理差异显著，<0.001。脊髓麻醉在 I 级和 II 级中占主导地位，而脊髓-硬膜外联合麻醉在 III 级中更为常见。PPH发生率为6.4%，各等级之间无明显差异，mWHO等级严重程度与PPH风险之间无关联（OR 0.97；95% CI；0.93至1.02，=0.2）。较高的 mWHO 分级与较高的重症监护室（ICU）入院率、较长的住院时间和一年的心脏病住院率相关。在这项按 mWHO 分级对心脏病患者的围产期麻醉管理和预后进行分层的回顾性研究中，mWHO 分级越高的病例越有可能早产、剖宫产，并在剖宫产时进行脊髓硬膜外联合麻醉和动脉置管。总体而言，他们的住院时间更长，更有可能住进重症监护室。然而，PPH的总体风险并没有随着mWHO分级的严重程度而增加。
