Introduction: An increasing number of people who have a history of acute coronary syndrome or cerebrovascular accident (termed cardiovascular events) are being considered for surgery. Up-to-date evidence of the impact of these prior events is needed...

British Journal of Anaesthesia, 126(1), 77-86. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.bja.2020.06.048

Background
The optimum transfusion strategy in patients with fractured neck of femur is uncertain, particularly if there is coexisting cardiovascular disease.

Methods
We conducted a prospective, single-centre, randomised feasibility trial of tw... Read More about A restrictive versus liberal transfusion strategy to prevent myocardial injury in patients undergoing surgery for fractured neck of femur: a feasibility randomised trial (RESULT-NOF).

Optical coherence tomography in mild cognitive impairment – systematic review and meta-analysis (2020)
Journal Article

Thinning of retinal layers, measured using optical coherence tomography (OCT), is associated with some neurodegenerative disorders such as established Alzheimer’s disease and multiple sclerosis. The evidence for retinal layer thinning in both mild co... Read More about Optical coherence tomography in mild cognitive impairment – systematic review and meta-analysis.

Spinal or general anaesthesia for surgical repair of hip fracture and subsequent risk of mortality and morbidity: a database analysis using propensity score‐matching (2020)
Journal Article
Morgan, L., McKeever, T. M., Nightingale, J., Deakin, D. E., & Moppett, I. K. (2020). Spinal or general anaesthesia for surgical repair of hip fracture and subsequent risk of mortality and morbidity: a database analysis using propensity score‐matching.

Around 76,000 people fracture their hip annually in the UK at a considerable personal, social and financial cost. Despite longstanding debate, the optimal mode of anaesthesia (general or spinal) remains unclear. Our aim was to assess whether there is...

The applicability of the results of any clinical trial will depend to a large extent on whether the study population is representative of the population seen in clinical practice. The growing older surgical population presents challenges for peri-ope... Read More about Age, sex, race and ethnicity representativeness of randomised controlled trials in peri‐operative medicine.
