Safe anesthesia and surgery for children with Hypospadias: Hypospadias Foundation, India

Posted by Hypospadias Foundation Email: [email protected] Phone: +919324180553 Parents always worry about safety of anesthesia when their little one is undergoing any surgery. At hypospadias foundation, we work as a team with pediatric anethesiologists to ensure safety of anesthesia during surgery. For minor hypospadias surgeries lasting less than 2 hours, we generally give regional anesthesia (caudal epidural block) for pain control/ relief with sedation (so that the child sleeps comfortably throughout the procedure). Hypospadias surgeries needing longer time than that generally require full anesthesia and I guess that will be the situation with your son’s surgery. The immediate and the most concerning is the Recovery from anesthesia and this usually within 2-3 hours after surgery implying that the kid will be able to talk, converse and start taking liquids etc after surgery. Usually after 6-8 hour of surgery kids can take solids and normal diet. We have made sure that our operation theatre and the surgical team is baby friendly to make sure that the recovery is fast and kids go home fast. The anesthesia used is caudal plus sedation in most cases, there is a warming mat under the baby during surgery to prevent low body temperature, the anesthesia team is trained in managing small babies, and all the equipment for anesthesia and surgery is baby friendly. Above all the hospital staff at MITR Hospital makes sure that the child is well cared for and parents are made comfortable during the stay.
