Overview

Electroencephalographic (EEG) monitoring during general anaesthesia (GA) is not typically provided as a standard care during GA. The recent availability of non-invasive commercial EEG monitors for children has made EEG monitoring more popular. Several studies have shown that monitoring EEG while under GA allows customization and titration of GA. However, the usefulness of EEG monitoring in children have not been established. It is a relatively new technology for some parents, and will involve additional costs to patients. We aim to understand the perceptions of patients and their parents regarding EEG monitoring during paediatric anaesthesia care by administering a survey before and after GA.

Eligibility

Inclusion Criteria:

  • All parents of children 1-16 years old and patients 12-16 years old coming for elective surgery requiring GA at KK Women's and Children's Hospital will be invited to voluntarily participate in an electronic survey on Form SG.

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Parents and patients coming for emergency surgery will not be invited for the survey.
