I’m hoping that no one reading this has missed the launch of NAP7: perioperative cardiac arrest. The NAP7 data touched every part of anaesthesia practice – from maternity and neonates right through to the frail and older patient – so there’s something there for everyone.

The work of CR&I is supported by a diverse group of clinical fellows (and this issue of the Bulletin even has a piece from a future research leader – aged 11).

I’m delighted that some of our fellows have given an insight into what the role is like – and the challenges of going and coming back from maternity leave.

A new year signals a new Editor for the Bulletin, and it gives me immense pleasure to welcome you to the January 2023 edition. As I write this, the UK’s NHS is experiencing winter pressures, nurse strike action seems imminent, purple seems the new black in terms of hospital bed status, and elective surgical recovery targets seem an insurmountable challenge.
