[Ambulatory anesthesia in intravenous digital angiography in children. 340 cases].
Immobility in intravenous digital angiography (ANIV) plays a leading part for high-quality results. Three hundred forty children (mean age 30 months, mean weight 12 kg) had an intravenous digital angiography in day-hospital's conditions. Intravenous general anesthesia with or without short neuromuscular blockade is able to help immobility in children. Method described requires a perfect synchronization with the radiologist. Anesthesia mean life was 6 minutes. No incident or fatal accident was observed. Many observations either confirmed the diagnosis or decided a surgical intervention. Determinant character of obtained investigations incite us to accept risks inherent in the technique.
