The association between early childhood exposure to general anesthesia and subsequent risk of developing attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder remains unknown.
A systematic review and meta-analysis of cohort studies.
Children undergoing general anesthesia.
A comparison of any type of general anesthesia exposure, including total intravenous anesthesia, inhalation general anesthesia, and combined intravenous and inhaled anesthesia, with non-anesthetic exposures, which did not receive any exposure to anesthetic drugs, including general anesthetics as well as local anesthetics.
The primary outcome measure was the risk of developing attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder after general anesthesia exposure.
The results of the overall meta-analysis showed an increased risk of subsequent attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder in children exposed to general anesthesia (RR = 1.26, 95% CI, 1.16-1.38; P < 0.001; I = 44.6%). Subgroup analysis found that a single exposure to general anesthesia in childhood was associated with an increased risk of developing attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (RR = 1.29, 95% CI, 1.19-1.40, P < 0.001; I = 2.6%), and the risk of attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder was further increased after multiple general anesthesia exposures (RR = 1.61, 95% CI, 1.32-1.97, P < 0.001; I = 57.6%). Exposure to general anesthesia lasting 1-60 min during childhood is associated with an increased risk of attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) (RR: 1.38, 95% CI: 1.26-1.51, P < 0.001; I = 0.0%). Moreover, with longer durations of exposure (61-120 min), the risk further rises (RR: 1.55, 95% CI: 1.21-1.99, P = 0.001; I = 37.8%). However, no additional increase in ADHD risk was observed with exposures exceeding 120 min (RR: 1.55, 95% CI: 1.35-1.79, P < 0.001; I = 0.0%).
Exposure to general anesthesia during early childhood increases the risk of developing attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder. In particular, multiple general anesthesia exposures and exposures longer than 60 min significantly increase the risk of developing ADHD.
幼儿期全身麻醉暴露与随后发生注意缺陷多动障碍(ADHD)的风险之间的关系尚不清楚。
系统评价和队列研究的荟萃分析。
接受全身麻醉的儿童。
将任何类型的全身麻醉暴露(包括全静脉麻醉、吸入全身麻醉和静脉吸入联合麻醉)与非麻醉暴露(未接受任何麻醉药物暴露,包括全身麻醉和局部麻醉)进行比较。
主要观察指标为全身麻醉暴露后发生 ADHD 的风险。
总体荟萃分析结果显示,全身麻醉暴露的儿童发生 ADHD 的风险增加(RR=1.26,95%CI,1.16-1.38;P<0.001;I²=44.6%)。亚组分析发现,儿童时期单次全身麻醉暴露与发生 ADHD 的风险增加相关(RR=1.29,95%CI,1.19-1.40,P<0.001;I²=2.6%),多次全身麻醉暴露后 ADHD 的风险进一步增加(RR=1.61,95%CI,1.32-1.97,P<0.001;I²=57.6%)。儿童期 1-60 分钟的全身麻醉暴露与 ADHD 风险增加相关(RR:1.38,95%CI:1.26-1.51,P<0.001;I²=0.0%)。此外,随着暴露时间的延长(61-120 分钟),风险进一步升高(RR:1.55,95%CI:1.21-1.99,P=0.001;I²=37.8%)。然而,暴露时间超过 120 分钟时,ADHD 风险无进一步增加(RR:1.55,95%CI:1.35-1.79,P<0.001;I²=0.0%)。
幼儿期全身麻醉暴露会增加发生 ADHD 的风险。特别是多次全身麻醉暴露和暴露时间超过 60 分钟会显著增加发生 ADHD 的风险。
