The US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) recently released an official warning regarding the potentially harmful impact of repeated and prolonged (more than three hours) general anesthesia on the child's brain. The potential impact of anesthesia highlights the importance of remediating the need for repeated and prolonged surgery with accompanying anesthesia exposure in a time of cerebral vulnerability and if possible, delay exposure to avoid potentially preventable harm. Therefore, it is crucial to better understand the impact of (different durations and frequencies of) anesthesia exposure on neurodevelopment.
