The main purpose of anesthesia is to cause the loss of sensation, especially pain, over a period of time. Usually, this technique is used in surgery because the pain generated during the surgery may be unbearable for the patient. Therefore, anesthesia can greatly help relieve the pain of the surgical patient and create a good condition for the surgery. So, what are the effects of baby anesthesia?
Generally speaking, general anesthesia has no effect on children, but if the child is too young, the risk of anesthesia is relatively high. However, for experienced anesthesiologists, general anesthesia has no significant impact on children. Because anesthesia is administered to the central nervous system through injection or inhalation, and the drugs used for anesthesia are quickly metabolized and excreted from the body after surgery, the harm to the body is relatively small.
Because anesthesia is an important part of modern surgery, and the vast majority of surgeries cannot be performed without anesthesia, anesthesia is relatively safe and does not affect the intellectual development of children. Therefore, when children need anesthesia, parents should actively cooperate with doctors in order to complete the next surgical treatment. Although anesthesia does not have a significant impact on children, if a child really needs anesthesia before surgery, it is generally recommended to postpone the surgery until after the child is three years old, as the child's brain nerve development has gradually matured after the age of three.
