Abstract
Purpose of the review: The collection and analysis of large amounts of data has revolutionized almost every aspect of our lives. In this review, we will explore several of the databases that are providing data on pediatric anesthesiology practice and the recent reports that have been published.
Recent findings: Studies from various multicenter databases provide information on outcomes from multiple aspects of pediatric anesthesia care provision. Large databases or registries include detailed information on individual anesthetic practice, airway management, regional anesthetic practice, adverse events, and cardiac anesthesia. These collaboratives are also providing information on health systems and benchmarking of effectiveness and efficiency of care.
Summary: For medical professionals, the ability to collect and learn from large datasets is not new but continues to evolve and improve as technology improves and the science of data analytics has been revolutionized. While the detail and accuracy of observational large data collaboratives may be limited, their ability to describe practice patterns, provide benchmarking for performance, and analyze outcome parameters has the potential to revolutionizing the practice of anesthesia in the future.
