    Description / Table of Contents: Abstract. Regional anaesthetic procedures are not popular in paediatric anaesthesia in many institutions. However, regional anaesthesia is gaining ground, especially in a "new" concept of balanced paediatric anaesthesia. The decisive argument for the use of regional anaesthesia is the prolongation of pain relief further into the postoperative phase. The minimal haemodynamic and respiratory side effects during epidural and spinal anaesthesia, the reduced narcotic requirement and the potential early mobilisation all speak in favour of practical application of these techniques. Specially adapted needles and catheters have reduced the technical limitations. The use of nerve stimulators has optimized the accuracy of needle and catheter positioning. The use of a nerve stimulator is therefore highly recommended for peripheral nerve blocks in children. On the other hand, the use of regional anaesthesia in children has potential disadvantages, which should be considered. Special knowledge and continuous training are required. Many techniques are time consuming and personnel intensive, at least temporarily, and the combination of general and regional anaesthesia exposes the child to the potential risks inherent in both procedures. The aim of this paper is to discuss procedures which have gained favour in paediatric regional anaesthesia during the past few years. These include caudal, epidural and spinal anaesthesia, especially for infants with high narcotic risk, as well as fascia iliaca compartment blocks for lower extremity analgesia and penile blocks. Many peripheral nerve blocks require special experience and therefore are not discussed here, but they are used routinely by specialists in all age groups. Good anatomic and pharmacologic knowledge should be a prerequisite for all physicians who use regional anaesthetic procedures. Continuous training and critical analysis are needed for good results. Only then can such methods be introduced into routine paediatric anaesthetic practice.
    Notes: Zusammenfassung. Verfahren der Regionalanästhesie sind in der Kinderanästhesie noch nicht vielerorts populär. Dennoch gewinnt die Regionalanästhesie – vor allem als ergänzendes Verfahren zur oberflächlich geführten allgemeinen Narkose – zunehmend Platz in einem "neuen" Konzept einer "balanzierten" Kinderanästhesie. Entscheidendes Argument dafür ist die anhaltende Schmerzausschaltung, die in der postoperativen Phase ggf. prolongiert werden kann. Die praktisch kaum wahrnehmbaren, geringen hämodynamischen und respiratorischen Einflüsse bei epiduraler oder spinaler Anästhesie, der geringe Narkosemittelbedarf, frühe Mobilisierung sowie zunehmend wissenschaftliche Erkenntnisse sind ermutigend für die praktische Anwendung dieser Techniken. Durch speziell fürs Kindesalter angepaßte Nadeln und Katheter konnten bereits viele Restriktionen aufgehoben werden. Ebenso wird durch Verwendung von Nervenstimulatoren die Qualität der Nadel- bzw. Katheterpositionierung generell verbessert. Beim narkotisierten Kind ist sie vielfach eine Voraussetzung. Andererseits ist auch mit einigen potentiellen Nachteilen bei der Anwendung der Regionalanästhesie im Kindesalter zu rechnen. Spezielle Kenntnisse und laufendes Training müssen selbstverständlich vorausgesetzt werden. Viele dieser Techniken erfordern neben einem Zeitaufwand passager auch zusätzlichen Personalaufwand, und schließlich kann das Kind potentiell durch die Kombination von Allgemein- und Regionalanästhesie Risiken ausgesetzt sein, die in beiden Verfahren stecken. In diesem Beitrag wurden die Verfahren herausgehoben, die in den vergangenen Jahren besonderes Gewicht in der Regionalanästhesie im Kindesalter erlangt haben. Hierzu zählen vor allem die Anwendung der Kaudalanästhesie, die Spinalanästhesie, besonders beim Säugling mit hohem Narkoserisiko, der Fascia-iliaca-Kompartment-Block für Operationen an einer unteren Extremität und der Penisblock. Viele Blockadetechniken peripherer Nerven setzen spezielle Kenntnisse voraus. Deswegen wurden sie hier auch nicht hervorgehoben, wenn sie auch von Spezialisten in der Routine in allen Altersgruppen angewendet werden. Gute theoretische Kenntnisse von Anatomie und Pharmakologie sind selbstverständlich für jeden, der regionalanästhesiologische Verfahren ansetzen will, vorauszusetzen. Fortwährende Übung und kritische Auseinandersetzung sind unabdingbar, um gute Ergebnisse zu erhalten. Nur dadurch können solche Methoden in die Routine der Kinderanästhesie ihren berechtigten Einzug halten.

    Notes: The conditions for intubation were studied in 28 infants (age 1–14 months, ASA I/II) after intravenous administration of propofol or atracurium. Anaesthesia was induced via mask with halothane and N2O/O2. The study propofol group (GrP, n= 14) received a bolus of propofol 3.0 mg·kg−1, whilst the control atracurium group (GrA, n= 14) received atracurium 0.4 mg·kg−1. Intubation conditions were listed as excellent, moderate or impossible in GrP 79%–14%−7% and in GrA 72%–14%–14% respectively. A decrease of mean arterial pressure (GrP–9.17 ± 10.8 mmHg, −13% GrA–9.67 ± 15.2 mmHg, −12%) and heart rate (GrP–18 ± 21 bpm; GrA–14 ± 23 bpm) were seen after induction with halothane. After intubation the mean arterial pressure increased. The increase of heart rate observed after intubation was higher in GrA (GrP +6 ± 8 bpm; GrA +17 ± 19 bpm). The same intubation scores found with propofol in comparison with atracurium may be due to the reflex-suppressive and stress-inhibitory effect of propofol. Since excellent conditions for intubation were found with comparable smaller effects on measured haemodynamic parameters, propofol is regarded as a safe alternative to atracurium to facilitate intubation.

    Notes: Abstract A combined technique of patchplasty with expanded polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) and a special skinplasty is described for congenital abdominal wall defects where the abdominal cavity needs enlargement but skin closure is primarily possible. The patchplasty consists of suturing two half-moon-shaped, expanded PTFE leaves to the sides of the muscular abdominal wall, then approximating them under observation of intra-abdominal pressure by monitoring five parameters (urinary bladder pressure, central venous pressure, transcutaneous oxygen saturation, ventilation pressure, and mean arterial pressure). The skin is incised in a horizontal manner according to the tension lines. However, after closure, regional necrosis of the skin in the mid-portion above the incision is often observed due to lack of sufficient subcutaneous tissue at this site. Therefore, a skinplasty is done as a preventive measure, resecting this potential site of necrosis. The final appearance of the skin is an inverted T-shape. The surgical and monitoring techniques are described and illustrated.
