Advances In Anaesthesia Techniques for Children

摘要

Anaesthesiology is an ever-changing field. New drags and techniques are continuously developed and considered for the anaesthetic plan, in a continuum of perioperative clinical practice, whether outpatient or inpatient. The use of regional anaesthesia techniques in children has increased dramatically. Local anaesthetics, once not considered by most anaesthetists for children anaesthesia, have become a valuable weapon even for the pediatric anaesthesiologist. Regional analgesia is most commonly used in conjunction with light general anaesthesia or sedation in pediatrics, although in certain circumstances a regional anaesthetic alone may be the preferred technique [1].
