1. Definition of general anesthesia General anesthesia, also known as general anesthesia, is an anesthesia method that is often used during surgery. It can make the patient’s consciousness and feeling completely disappear within a certain period of time, and there is no pain during the operation. This method is often used with young or uncooperative children.
two. Intelligence and intellectual development Intelligence refers to human observation, memory, thinking ability, imagination and so on. Some people regard intelligence as the ability of people to choose the best solution from many possible solutions, that is, the ability of the brain to receive, store, and process information from the outside world, and to extract and use information from the memory bank to solve problems. Intellectual development is affected by many factors, among which genetic factors are the premise of intellectual development, the brain is the material basis of intellectual development, and environment and education are the decisive conditions for intellectual development. Children must be in the long-term synthesis of these factors rather than short-term, independent factors in order to obtain different degrees. Fast or slow intellectual development.
three. The effect of anesthetics is to block pain transmission. The role of general anesthesia is to block the conduction of pain to the brain and temporarily suppress the child’s consciousness. During the operation, the anesthesiologist should add anesthesia as needed until the end of the operation. The use of a multi-function monitor during anesthesia can observe the blood pressure of children at any time. Heartbeat, breathing and other vital signs. The anesthesiologist will promptly deal with and correct the situation. In addition, anesthesia is a reversible process, with the withdrawal of anesthesia drugs, the anesthetic drugs will gradually disappear. The child will wake up slowly, and the time to wake up varies greatly from person to person. Fast ten minutes, slow dozens of minutes or even dozens of hours. Therefore, unless there is an anesthesia accident during anesthesia. General anesthesia will not have adverse effects on children’s intellectual development.
Four. The side effects of general anesthesia are temporary. Some children may have varying degrees of insomnia and short-term memory impairment within a week after the operation, so some parents attribute the change of the child’s operation to the mental decline caused by anesthesia. In fact, the operation of the child is an experience. In the process of trauma, recovery takes a certain amount of time. This does not mean that the child’s intellectual development has been affected. Every year in our country, thousands of children need surgery and receive general anesthesia, and some have experienced multiple times. However, there is no data to show that general anesthesia will adversely affect the intelligence of children. Therefore, parents must not attribute their children to general anesthesia because of their unsatisfactory results in an intelligence test or test. Of course, if the anesthesia occurs in severe hypoxia and brain damage. And it will indeed cause intellectual disability or even a vegetative state. Fortunately, the incidence of such anesthesia accidents is extremely low.
In short, anesthesia is an important part of modern medicine, and most operations are inseparable from anesthesia. Usually, anesthesia is safe, and general anesthesia will not affect the intellectual development of children. Parents should have a correct understanding and understanding of this. Cooperate with the doctor to successfully carry out the surgical treatment for the child.
