Abstract
BACKGROUND Chamomile is consumed worldwide for enjoyment and its potentially desirable properties. Widespread patient resource websites, however, discourage preoperative chamomile intake, lest bleeding could worsen. This precaution, though, stems largely from indirect evidence in one case report. To evaluate if chamomile ingestion impacts coagulation assays via coumarin-like substances, we designed a randomized, placebo-controlled, crossover study. MATERIALS AND METHODS Healthy volunteers were randomized to three interventions in a cross-over-design spanning 5 weeks per subject. Interventions included 7-day consumption of chamomile tea (3 tea bags × 3 times daily = 9 tea bags daily), a chamomile extract capsule (3 times daily), or a placebo capsule (3 times daily). A 7-day washout period elapsed between intervention periods. The primary outcome was the change in prothrombin time (PT) before vs. after each intervention. Secondary outcomes included changes in the international normalized ratio (INR), activated partial thromboplastin time (aPTT), thrombin time (TT), reptilase time (RT), and fibrinogen (FG) surrounding each intervention. RESULTS All 12 enrolled subjects were randomized and completed the study. The primary outcome of PT change (mean ± SD) was similar across interventions (chamomile tea = - 0.2 ± 0.4 s, extract capsule = - 0.2 ± 0.4 s, and placebo capsule = 0.1 ± 0.5 s; p = 0.34). INR change was 0 s (p = 0.07) for each intervention. The aPTT, TT, RT, and FG, did not change significantly across interventions (p = 0.8, p = 0.08, p = 0.8, and p = 0.2 respectively). CONCLUSIONS Chamomile intake by tea or capsule does not prolong PT. These findings challenge the notion to avoid perioperative chamomile intake in patients not taking warfarin.

Abstract
BACKGROUND In the early postoperative period, respiratory compromise is a significant problem. Standard-of-care monitoring includes respiratory rate (RR) and pulse oximetry, which are helpful; however, low SpO2 is often a late sign during decompensation. The FDA-approved Capnostream-20p monitor records four variables (SpO2, RR, End-tidal CO2, heart rate), which are combined by fuzzy logic into a single, unit-less value (range 1-10) called the integrated pulmonary index (IPI). No published studies have assessed the performance of a low IPI to predict impending respiratory events. METHODS In this investigator-initiated study, adult patients undergoing general anesthesia were monitored with the Capnostream-20p monitor for up to 2 h during their recovery room stay. The study coordinator, who along with clinicians, was blinded to IPI values, recorded the time of any respiratory event, defined a priori as any one of eight respiratory-related interventions/conditions. The primary sensitivity endpoint (early detection success) was defined as at least 80% of events predicted by at least 2 consecutive low IPI (≤ 7) values within 2-15 min before an event occurred. Late detection was defined as low IPI values occurring with 2 min prior to or 2 min after the event occurred. DISCUSSION Of 358 patients, ≥ 1 respiratory event occurred in 183 (51.1%) patients. Of 802 total events, 606 were detected early (within 2-15 min prior to the event), and 653 were detected either early or late. Therefore, the sensitivity for early detection was 75.6% (95% confidence interval [CI]: 72.6-78.5%), which differed significantly from the 80% sensitivity goal by 4.4% (p = 0.0016). Sensitivity for total success (early or late) was 81.4% (95% CI: 78.7-84.1%), which was significantly different from the 90% on time sensitivity goal by 8.6% (p < 0.0001). CONCLUSIONS A low IPI was 75.6% sensitive for early detection (within 2-15 min) prior to respiratory events but did not achieve our preset threshold of 80% for success.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The REGAIN (Regional versus General Anesthesia for Promoting Independence after Hip Fracture) trial found similar ambulation and survival at 60 days with spinal versus general anesthesia for hip fracture surgery. Trial outcomes evaluating pain, prescription analgesic use, and patient satisfaction have not yet been reported. OBJECTIVE To compare pain, analgesic use, and satisfaction after hip fracture surgery with spinal versus general anesthesia. DESIGN Preplanned secondary analysis of a pragmatic randomized trial. (ClinicalTrials.gov: NCT02507505). SETTING 46 U.S. and Canadian hospitals. PARTICIPANTS Patients aged 50 years or older undergoing hip fracture surgery. INTERVENTION Spinal or general anesthesia. MEASUREMENTS Pain on postoperative days 1 through 3; 60-, 180-, and 365-day pain and prescription analgesic use; and satisfaction with care. RESULTS A total of 1600 patients were enrolled. The average age was 78 years, and 77% were women. A total of 73.5% (1050 of 1428) of patients reported severe pain during the first 24 hours after surgery. Worst pain over the first 24 hours after surgery was greater with spinal anesthesia (rated from 0 [no pain] to 10 [worst pain imaginable]; mean difference, 0.40 [95% CI, 0.12 to 0.68]). Pain did not differ across groups at other time points. Prescription analgesic use at 60 days occurred in 25% (141 of 563) and 18.8% (108 of 574) of patients assigned to spinal and general anesthesia, respectively (relative risk, 1.33 [CI, 1.06 to 1.65]). Satisfaction was similar across groups. LIMITATION Missing outcome data and multiple outcomes assessed. CONCLUSION Severe pain is common after hip fracture. Spinal anesthesia was associated with more pain in the first 24 hours after surgery and more prescription analgesic use at 60 days compared with general anesthesia.
