Abstract
A series of recent studies have changed the practice of pediatric neuroanesthesia, improving outcomes and making children's quality of life better. Potential long-term neurologic effects in infants and young children undergoing surgery and anesthesia have been recognized for over a decade. Several recent, well performed studies suggest that hypotension may also be a major contributor to postoperative neurologic impairment in children. Craniosynostosis surgery has also been the subject of extensive study, both related to decreasing blood loss and to optimizing postoperative outcomes. Although neurosurgical anesthesia research in the pediatric population can be ethically and logistically complex, resolving questions such as the optimal blood pressure during surgery and best management of infants undergoing repair of craniosynostosis will improve patient outcomes.
