Highlights 

Currently, ischemic heart disease ranks as the most prevalent form of primary heart disease. The risk of myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury, along with its associated mortality, is notably rising among perioperative patients. Recognizing the underlying mechanisms of myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury and identifying suitable treatments are crucial. Inhibitors targeting the key molecules involved in pyroptosis hold promise as potential therapeutic options for managing myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury

Highlights

● In the realm of forearm, wrist, and hand surgeries, ultrasound-guided forearm selective nerve block techniques offer distinct advantages over alternative methods such as Bier's block, brachial plexus block, and wrist block. These advantages include reduced anesthesia-related time, prolonged duration of analgesia, and minimal inter-ference with upper extremity motor function. 

● Ultrasound-guided forearm selective nerve block stands as a straightforward and conducive anesthesia method ideally suited for distal upper limb surgeries. This approach harmonizes seamlessly with the principles of fast surgical recovery and enhances patient comfort during both diagnostic and therapeutic procedures. 

● Supplementation of dexmedetomidine or dexamethasone in ultrasound-guided selective nerve blocks of the forearm has been shown to significantly prolong the duration of analgesia.

Highlights

● Artificial intelligence (AI) is lauded for its capacity to resolve intricate problems with unwavering efficiency, devoid of fatigue. To elucidate the potential of AI in perioperative pain management, we have meticulously surveyed a vast array of scholarly works to discern the landscape of research in this multifaceted domain. 

● Conventional perioperative pain studies have primarily confined their scope to clinical aspects. However, this review delves into the amalgamation of AI and perioperative pain, heralding a diverse methodology for pain control. 

● AI's applicability in medical domains, particularly anesthesia, has spawned numerous inquiries into its synergy  with perioperative pain. Yet, a dearth of comprehensive reviews encapsulating the current research milieu, pin  pointing hurdles, and envisioning future directions in this sphere necessitated the present discourse. 

● We herein offer horizontal and vertical assessments of diverse models and algorithms employed in periopera  tive pain management, encapsulated in diagrammatic form for reader accessibility. The compilation of this review draws from a spectrum of online scholarly repositories, thus ensuring a thorough and relevant assembly of insights.
