Minerva Anestesiologica
Scope & Guideline
Shaping the Future of Pain Management Through Scholarly Insight
Introduction
Aims and Scopes
- Innovative Anesthesia Techniques:
The journal emphasizes the development and evaluation of new anesthesia techniques, particularly regional anesthesia methods such as the erector spinae plane block and serratus plane block, which are gaining traction for their benefits in pain management. - Multimodal Analgesia:
A consistent focus on multimodal analgesic strategies highlights the importance of combining different modalities to enhance pain relief, reduce opioid consumption, and improve recovery outcomes across various surgical procedures. - Patient Outcomes and Safety:
Research assessing patient outcomes, including recovery quality, postoperative complications, and safety protocols, is a core area of interest, aiming to optimize perioperative care and enhance patient safety. - Critical Care and Emergency Medicine:
The journal addresses critical care topics, including the management of patients in intensive care settings, the impact of COVID-19 on anesthesia practices, and emergency airway management techniques. - Educational and Training Innovations:
Minerva Anestesiologica also explores advancements in education and training for anesthesiologists, including simulation-based learning and new guidelines for practice, reflecting the evolving landscape of anesthesiology.
Trending and Emerging
- Opioid-Free Anesthesia:
A growing trend towards opioid-free anesthesia is evident, with multiple studies exploring the efficacy and safety of alternatives that minimize or eliminate opioid use during and after surgery, addressing the opioid crisis. - Ultrasound-Guided Techniques:
The use of ultrasound in anesthesia is increasingly prominent, with many recent papers focusing on ultrasound-guided nerve blocks, enhancing accuracy and efficacy in regional anesthesia. - Artificial Intelligence and Technology Integration:
Emerging themes in the integration of artificial intelligence in anesthesiology for patient monitoring, predictive analytics, and decision support systems are gaining traction, reflecting a broader trend in medical technology. - COVID-19 Impact on Anesthesia Practices:
Research addressing the implications of the COVID-19 pandemic on anesthesia practices, patient management, and safety protocols is a significant emerging theme, indicating the need for adaptation in clinical settings. - Personalized Medicine in Anesthesia:
There is an increasing focus on personalized medicine approaches, including tailoring anesthesia and analgesia based on individual patient characteristics, genetics, and specific surgical needs.
Declining or Waning
- Traditional General Anesthesia Techniques:
There has been a noticeable decrease in studies focusing solely on traditional general anesthesia techniques. As new anesthetic agents and regional techniques gain popularity, traditional methods seem to be less frequently addressed. - Single-Agent Analgesia Studies:
Research centered around single-agent analgesia, particularly opioid-based approaches, is declining as the field moves towards more comprehensive multimodal strategies that incorporate various methods for pain management. - Basic Anesthesia Education:
Topics related to basic anesthesia education and introductory practices may be receiving less attention in favor of more advanced, specialized training techniques and research on the latest technologies in anesthesia. - Non-Regional Anesthesia Approaches:
With the rise in popularity of regional anesthesia techniques, there appears to be a decline in research focusing on non-regional approaches for various surgical procedures, indicating a shift in practice norms.
