Anesthesiology Evidence Evolution

5 evidence evolution narratives tracing how landmark trials and guideline updates reshaped anesthesiology practice.

Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS)

From traditional recovery to multimodal fast-track

Traditional → Kehlet multimodal → procedure-specific → opioid-sparing

From rescue device to first-line strategy

Macintosh → video as rescue → INTUBE/VivAIS → video-first

Finding the right trigger

Liberal thresholds → TRICC → TRISS → TRICS-III → context-specific

The revolution in nerve blocks

Landmark → nerve stimulator → ultrasound → truncal blocks

The end of bridge-everything

Bridge-everything → BRIDGE trial → risk-stratified
