The nurse anesthetist’s challenges in pediatric anesthesia : A quantitative cross-sectional study (English)
Abstract [sv]

Bakgrund: Att vårda barn perioperativt ställer höga krav på personalens kompetens. Barn skall inom vården inte betraktas som små vuxna. Anestesisjuksköterskan behöver ha särskilda kunskaper om andning, cirkulation och farmakokinetik vid olika åldrar.

Syfte: Undersöka vilka faktorer anestesisjuksköterskan betraktar som mest utmanande inför generell anestesi på mindre barn på en allmän operationsavdelning, samt undersöka sambandet mellan de betraktade utmaningarna och bakgrundsfaktorer.

Metod: Kvantitativ tvärsnittsstudie med enkäter som distribuerades till anestesisjuksköterskor. Deskriptiv och statistisk analys har genomförts.

Resultat: 97% av respondenterna känner någon grad av oro i samband med generell anestesi på barn. De faktorer som upplevs som mest utmanande är laryngospasm och hypoxi. Kvinnor upplever oro i högre utsträckning än män, yngre upplever mer oro än äldre och de med kortare arbetserfarenhet upplever oro i större utsträckning än dem med längre arbetserfarenhet.

Konklusion: Laryngospasm och hypoxi är allvarliga tillstånd som kan förekomma vid generell anestesi på barn. Den unga och/eller oerfarne ser detta som mer utmanande än den äldre och/eller erfarne. Det är av betydelse att den erfarne medarbetaren sprider sin kunskap genom teamarbete för att den oerfarne kollegan ska kunna ge en god och säker vård

Abstract [en]

Background: Caring for children perioperatively places high demands on the staff's competence. Children should not be regarded as small adults. The nurse anesthetist needs special knowledge of breathing, circulation and pharmacokinetics at different ages.

The aim: Investigate which factors the nurse anesthetist considers most challenging before general anesthesia in smaller children in a general operating department and investigate the connection between the consider challenger and background factors.

Method: Quantitative cross-sectional study with questionnaires that was distributed to nurse anesthetists. Descriptive and statistical analysis has been carried out.

Results: 97% of the respondents feel some degree of anxiety in connection with general anesthesia in children. The factors perceived as most challenging are laryngospasm and hypoxia. Women experience anxiety to a greater extent than men, younger experience more anxiety than elder and those with shorter work experience feel anxiety to a greater extent than those with longer experience.

Conclusion: Laryngospasm and hypoxia are serious conditions that can occur during general anesthesia in children. The young and/ or inexperienced see this as more challenging than the older and/ or experienced. It is important that the experienced employee spreads their knowledge through teamwork so that the inexperienced colleague can provide good and safe care.
