Noteworthy Articles in 2013 for Cardiothoracic Anesthesiologists

In 2013, the field of cardiothoracic anesthesiology has continued to grow at the same astounding rate as in previous years. It has become increasingly difficult for practicing anesthesiologists to stay current on impactful publications related to our exciting subspecialty. The scientific output has expanded to such a great extent that following the literature in specialty journals barely scrapes the surface of available knowledge. With the recent emphasis on teamwork spanning multiple medical specialties in the care for complex patients, the door has opened for our research to be presented in nontraditional, nonanesthesiology venues. In this review, we have selected a small sample of noteworthy contributions to the field of cardiothoracic and vascular anesthesiology published in 2013 with potential impact on our clinical practice.
