The prevalence of obesity in the paediatric population is increasing worldwide. As a result, more and more children will present for anaesthetic care for surgery and other procedures. This review aims to provide some recent information regarding the anaesthetic management of the obese child. Unfortunately, there is little evidence on which to base our clinical care of these children and what information is available is often extrapolated from adult practice. Further prospective studies are required, with careful attention to definitions and terminology, so that populations can be compared and appropriate conclusions drawn.
肥胖在儿科人群中的流行率正在全球范围内上升。因此,越来越多的儿童将因手术和其他程序而接受麻醉护理。本综述旨在提供一些有关肥胖儿童麻醉管理的最新信息。不幸的是,我们几乎没有基于这些信息来为这些儿童提供临床护理的证据,而且可用的信息通常是从成人实践中推断出来的。需要进一步进行前瞻性研究,并仔细注意定义和术语,以便能够对人群进行比较并得出适当的结论。
