Overview

Alerts clinicians to hemorrhage and bradycardia risks in pediatric craniofacial surgery; leaves open optimal anesthetic strategies for prospective study.

Structured PICO

P
Population
126 children undergoing craniofacial operations, ages 1 month to 12 years (50% in first year of life)
I
Intervention
Anaesthesia conducted in accordance with standard neurosurgical techniques without induced hypotension
O
Outcome
Intraoperative and postoperative complications (haemorrhage, bradycardia, need for postoperative ventilation, death, neurological impairment)safety

Standard neurosurgical anaesthesia without induced hypotension in paediatric craniofacial surgery is associated with significant risks of haemorrhage and bradycardia but resulted in no mortality or permanent neurological impairment in this series.
