Paper #8: Cumulative Anesthesia Exposure in Patients Treated for Early Onset Scoliosis
Spine Deformity
|January 31, 2020
Abstract:
Anesthesia time was collected for 72 consecutive patients with early onset scoliosis (EOS). Patients averaged 26.8 hours of anesthesia, of which 64% came from orthopedic procedures. 42% of patients received greater than 3 hours of cumulative anesthesia prior to age 3, exceeding the FDA's recommendation. Non-idiopathic diagnosis and treatment other than bracing were statistically significant risk factors for greater cumulative anesthesia exposure.
