The Gas Study: Comparing Neurodevelopment Outcome and Apnea in Infants

Principal Investigators

M.E, McCann, M.D., A. Lynne, M.D.

Description

The primary objective of this trial is to determine whether different types of anaesthesia [regional versus general] given to infants undergoing inguinal hernia repair result in equivalent neurodevelopmental outcomes. Secondary objectives are to describe the frequency and characteristics of apnoea in the post-operative period after both regional and general anaesthesia for inguinal hernia repair in infants, and determine the factors associated with apnoea.
