What are the goals of general anesthesia?
The goals of general anesthesia are: 1) to guard your child’s safety and welfare; 2) to minimize physical discomfort and pain; 3) to control anxiety, minimize psychological trauma, and maximize the potential for amnesia; 4) to control behavior and/or movement so as to allow the safe completion of the procedure; and 5) to return your child to a state in which safe discharge from medical supervision is possible.
