Incidence of severe critical events in paediatric anaesthesia (APRICOT): a prospective multicentre observational study in 261 hospitals in Europe
2017
Background Little is known about the incidence of severe critical events in children undergoing general anaesthesia in Europe. We aimed to identify the incidence, nature, and outcome of severe critical events in children undergoing anaesthesia, and the associated potential risk factors. Methods The APRICOT study was a prospective observational multicentre cohort study of children from birth to 15 years of age undergoing elective or urgent anaesthesia for diagnostic or surgical procedures. Children were eligible for inclusion during a 2-week period determined prospectively by each centre. There were 261 participating centres across 33 European countries.

Morbidity and mortality after anesthesia in early life in Italy. A subgroup analysis of the NECTARINE Trial
2023
Background: Recent literature on neonatal anesthesia focuses on the importance of keeping physiology within the ranges of normality to improve the long-term neurological outcome. The Neonate and Children audit of Anesthesia pRactice IN Europe (NECTARINE) showed a derangement of one or more than one physiological parameters during anesthesia needing a medical intervention in 35.2% of 6592 anesthesia procedure performed in infants up to 60 weeks postmenstrual age. Methods: Subanalysis of the Italian NECTARINE cohort providing a snapshot of anesthesia management, incidence of clinical events requiring intervention during anesthesia, and morbidity and mortality at 30 and 90 days.
