Abstract:Objective: To explore the effect of single short-term sevoflurane general anesthesia on early postoperative intelligence development in children aged 0-3 years. Methods: Gesell development scale was used to evaluate the neurological development (DQ) of 200 children aged 0 to 3 years old 1 day preoperatively and 3 months after operation. Another 200 normal children in the same age range were selected respectively as control group I and control group II which compared and contrasted with those in anesthesia group. Results: Compared with the DQ scores preoperative 1 day, the developmental age (motor, adaptive, verbal, social) of the four energy regions of children increased to varying degrees after 3 months of anesthesia (P<0.001). The difference of DQ scores of four energy regions 1 day preoperatively and 3 months after operation was not statistically significant (P>0.05). There was no significant difference in DQ scores of four energy regions between anesthesia group and control group (P>0.05). Conclusion: A single short-term sevoflurane general anesthesia has no significant effect on the postoperative DQ of Gesell development scales in children aged 0-3 years, and all energy regions are normal development with age.
