Abstract

Induction of anesthesia by inhalation is very common in children due to difficult venous conditions and especially in uncooperative children. During the study on complications in the pediatric anesthesia in Europe (APRICOT study) including almost 30,000 patients, 48% of the children were induced by inhalation. Under the conditions of the corona pandemic, however, induction of anesthesia by inhalation represents an increased risk of infection due to the potential release of aerosols. Rapid sequence induction is recommended for anesthesia induction and definitive airway management for adults and children in the current pandemic situation. The present case demonstrates that there can be situations in children in which induction of anesthesia by inhalation is unavoidable and shows a potential procedure for reducing the risk of infection for the anesthesia personnel.
