Proper general anesthesia does not pose any harm to children as it merely temporarily suppresses consciousness. Once the medication wears off, the child will return to normal. Anesthesiologists will continuously administer additional anesthetic drugs based on the needs of the surgery.
During the general anesthesia process, the depth of anesthesia can be determined by observing breathing, circulation, and nerve reflexes. When muscle relaxants are used, the condition of the circulation and nerve reflexes becomes the primary indicator. The brain requires sufficient oxygen and glycogen for activity; respiratory problems may affect brain function, leading to loss of consciousness or abnormal nerve reflexes.
Parents inquire whether it is normal for children to experience urinary and fecal incontinence after receiving anesthesia injections.

The potential effects and teratogenic risks of using regional anesthetic drugs after vaginal tumor surgery on the fetus cannot be predicted. It is recommended to undergo a Down syndrome screening between 15 to 20 weeks of pregnancy to assess the fetus’s development, and symptomatic treatment should be administered if necessary.
General anesthesia is the safest and most reliable method, without affecting the baby’s health.
