Summary

The aim of this study is to investigate if it is feasible to use a protocol in which avoiding oxygen desaturation in the brain during general anaesthesia can reduce the risk of negative postoperative behavior changes in children.

We will recruit children from at least five centres around the world for this feasibility study. Brain oxygenation will be monitored with Near Red Infrascopy (NIRS) which is like a saturation monitor placed on the forehead of the child during anesthesia. The anesthesia is done as per routine, but we will ask the anesthesiologist to record what actions they took when there were signs of decreasing oxygen saturation in the brain. We will also ask the parents to fill in a questionnaire with 27 questions about changes in their child's behavior 7 days after the operation.
