This patient-education brochure was developed with input and review by the AAP Section on Anesthesia and Pain Medicine. The two-color, 12-panel brochure provides a clear explanation of what happens before, during and after anesthesia. The brochure answers frequently-asked parental questions in easy-to-understand language.

• What are the risks of anesthesia for my child?
• What do I tell my child about anesthesia?
• What if my child gets sick just before the scheduled time?

The Day of the Procedure

• Can my child eat, drink, or take medicine on the day of anesthesia?
• What will my child do while waiting for anesthesia?
• Will my child be worried?
• How will anesthesia be given to my child? Can I be with my child when anesthesia is started?

After the Procedure

• Where will my child go after the procedure?
• How will my child behave after the procedure?
• Will nausea and vomiting be a problem?
