[Application of intravenous total anesthesia in "small" surgical interventions in children]

Area of Science:

• Pediatric Anesthesiology
• Surgical Interventions
• Pharmacology

Background:

• Intravenous total anesthesia is crucial for pediatric operative treatments.
• Assessing anesthetic efficacy in children undergoing minor surgical procedures is essential.
• Optimizing anesthetic regimens for pediatric patients requires careful consideration of drug combinations.

Purpose of the Study:

• To analyze the results of operative treatments in children using intravenous total anesthesia.
• To evaluate the effectiveness of a specific anesthetic combination for pediatric minor surgeries.
• To determine if the proposed anesthesia scheme provides adequate anesthesiological defense.

Main Methods:

• Analysis of operative treatment results in 458 children aged 3-15 years.
• Application of a proposed anesthesia scheme involving propofol, ketamine, and fentanyl.
• Intravenous total anesthesia administration during various interventions.

Main Results:

• The proposed anesthesia scheme, combining propofol, ketamine, and fentanyl, was successfully applied.
• This combination provided adequate anesthesiological defense during minor operative interventions.
• The study included a cohort of 458 pediatric patients undergoing surgery.

Conclusions:

• The combination of propofol, ketamine, and fentanyl is a viable anesthetic option for minor pediatric surgeries.
• This anesthetic approach ensures patient safety and effective pain management in children.
• The findings support the use of this specific anesthetic regimen for improved pediatric surgical care.
