On the July 2026 Issue Cover
Dreaming during anesthesia is common and may have mental health benefits. However, systematic research on its incidence and outcomes in clinical settings remains limited. In this issue of
Anesthesiology,
Sikka et al. implemented a standardized propofol-based, electroencephalography-guided emergence bundle to facilitate a preemergence state conducive to dreaming, integrating it into routine care to assess adherence, dream recall, patient experience, and safety. In an accompanying editorial,
Palanca and Sleigh discuss dreaming under general anesthesia. Cover illustration: A. Johnson, Vivo Visuals Studio.
