Zusammenfassung

Es ist wissenschaftlich evident, dass die Anwesenheit eines Elternteils oder einer anderen Bezugsperson während der Narkoseeinleitung bei Kindern zu keiner Reduktion von Angst führt. Auch resultiert dies nicht in einer besseren Kooperation des Kindes. Trotzdem werden Anästhesisten immer häufiger mit dem Wunsch der Eltern konfrontiert, während der Narkoseeinleitung anwesend zu sein zu können, und in vielen Ländern ist dies tägliche Praxis. Im Folgenden wird ausgeführt, worauf sich diese Praxis stützt, welche Faktoren darüber hinaus relevant sein können, und warum die Anwesenheit eines Elternteils während der Narkoseeinleitung trotz eindeutiger Datenlage sinnvoll sein kann. Hinweise und Tipps, wie die Elternanwesenheit in der Klinik praktisch aussehen kann, finden sich am Ende des Beitrags.

Abstract

There is a high level of evidence that parental presence during induction of anesthesia in children does not lead to a reduction of fear and better cooperation of the child. However, pediatric anesthetists often encounter the request of parents to be present during the induction of anesthesia which is current practice in many countries. This article explains the grounds and the premises for this practice and describes those factors which might be important to support parental presence during induction of anesthesia in children. Some practical advice and tips on how parental presence in the clinic can be practically implemented are given at the end of the article.
