Pediatric anesthesia registries (multicenter prospective observational datasets)

Main finding

As reported in the abstract

  • Registries useful to quantify the incidence of rare adverse outcomes and uncommon complications of medications and procedures
  • Registries can highlight associations between severe patient safety events and patient and procedure-related risk factors
  • Registries can generate knowledge, support quality improvement and promote best clinical practices
  • Limitations: observational nature (no randomization, selection and treatment bias); maintenance challenges (variable modification, collaborator fatigue, resources) can decrease data quality
