Abstract
- BACKGROUND Neonatal patients are at higher risk in the perioperative period than older infants and children. Extubation as an early goal for noenatal intensive care unit patients presenting for surgery is undergoing a renaissance period, and an exploration of adverse events following selection for extubation immediately after general anesthesia has not specifically been undertaken in this population. AIMS The objective of this study is to determine the adverse events most commonly encountered in neonatal intensive care unit patients recovering from anesthesia in the post anesthesia care unit, quantify the risk of event occurrence, and identify risk factors that may increase the risk of postoperative adverse events. METHODS All neonatal intensive care unit patients presenting to the operating room 6/1/2014-5/31/2018 who recovered in the post anesthesia care unit were included for analysis. Univariate analyses were conducted utilizing the Wilcoxon rank-sum test or Fisher exact test. Due to the low event rate, a small-sample generalized estimating equation model was created with a major event composite as the outcome and explanatory variables with P values
