Abstract

The issue of potentially harmful effects of neurotoxicity or anaesthesia management on children undergoing general anaesthesia is still not resolved. Studies have so far been limited by methodological problems. In a retrospective cohort study, a new noninvasive method was used to demonstrate visual processing changes in children with a single previous exposure to anaesthesia. We need new noninvasive methods that can be used before and after exposure to anaesthesia and surgery to detemine possible effects on long-term neurodevelopment.

需要新的方法来研究麻醉对儿童神经系统发育的潜在不利影响。

神经毒性或麻醉管理对接受全身麻醉的儿童的潜在有害影响问题仍未得到解决。迄今为止，相关研究一直受到方法学问题的限制。在一项回顾性队列研究中，我们使用了一种新的无创方法来证明之前只接触过一次麻醉的儿童的视觉处理变化。我们需要在接触麻醉和手术前后使用新的无创方法来确定对长期神经发育可能产生的影响。
