Standby for the results of The RELIEF Trial; coming soon on TopMedTalk, Professor Monty Mythen will be presenting an exclusive programme here covering the results of the trial and discussing its impact.

The REstrictive Versus LIbEral Fluid Therapy in Major Abdominal Surgery: RELIEF trial, will it answer the questions we hoped? Will this trial put to bed the questions about liberal restricted fluid therapy or is it a debate that's set to run and run? Can a trial ever be truly definitive?

This piece begins with the question, what does Enhanced Recovery mean to you?

Here we go for a ground up approach via a 'council of nurses'. Can a 'roundtable' sometimes work better than the traditional hierarchical power structure?

Desiree Chappell interviews Dr Ruchir Gupta medical lead for enhanced recovery at Stony Brook University.

How do we bend cost curve to our advantage? How do we assert the irreducible minimum? Is it possible to spend less money and get better outcomes? Is it possible to get people to realise that not 'doing something' is sometimes the right decision? How do 'bundle payments' work in relation to overall health?

Featuring Desiree Chappell, Monty Mythen, Dr Lee A. Fleisher Chair of Anesthesiology and Critical Care (University of Pennsylvania) and Vicki Morton DNP and Director of Clinical and Quality Outcomes at Providence Anesthesiology Associates University of South Carolina.

METS trial - exercise tolerance and surgery outcomes.

The results of the METS trial were presented at the International Anaesthesia Research Society meeting in Chicago.

Measurement of Exercise Tolerance before Surgery (METS) study: a protocol for an international multicentre prospective cohort study of cardiopulmonary exercise testing prior to major non-cardiac surgery (http://bmjopen.bmj.com/content/6/3/e010359).

The trial design is discussed and excitement shared about the potential impact of the results. The study of over 1,400 people involves participants in Canada, the UK, Australia and New Zealand. The full paper is under review at a major journal and following publication will be discussed in full on a future edition of TopMed talk.
