Métodos
Se realizó un estudio analítico, prospectivo, observacional, multicéntico, en el que intervinieron 23 hospitales de la red sanitaria española, estableciéndose 3 cohortes de pacientes en función de la edad (preescolares de 1 a 3 años, escolares de 4 a 7 años, y niños mayores de 8 a 12 años). Para reclutar a los pacientes se requirió el consentimiento informado de los tutores legales. Debían tener una edad comprendida entre los 1 y 12 años, y estado físico ASA I-II, exclúyendose aquellos pacientes que presentaran alguna alergia a fármacos anestéscios o analgésicos (tipo antiinflamatorio no esteroideo (AINE) o relacionados) así como algún tipo de patología hepática, cardíaca, pulmonar o renal. Debían estar programados para una cirugía de entre 30 y 120 minutos y, estar en ayuno preoperatorio de 6 horas para sólidos y 2 horas para líquidos claros.
Se monitorizaron los siguiente parámetros: tensión arterial no invasiva (TA), frecuencia cárdiaca (FC), pulsioximetría (SpO2), frecuencia respiratoria y temperatura, registrando sus valores a la llegada al quirófano, tras la premedicación y tras la inducción, cada 5 min durante el procedimiento, antes de extubar, 5 min tras extubación y después, cada 15 min hasta un máximo de 60 min. Durante el acto anestésico se registraron, además de los anteriores, la concentración de sevoflurano espiratorio y las dosis de remifentanilo empleadas.

Methods
An analytic, prospective, observational, multicenter study was performed in 23 participating hospitals within the Spanish health care system. Three (3) age cohorts were defined among the patients (preschoolers aged 1 to 3 years; school-aged children between 4 and 7 years; and older children aged 8 to 12 years). The informed consent of legal guardians was required in order to recruit patients. Children had to be between the ages of 1 and 12 years and in the ASA I-II classes. Patients who were allergic to an anesthetic or analgesic drug (non-steroid anti-inflammatory drug [NSAID] or related drugs) were excluded, as well as patients with any type of liver, heart, lung or kidney disease. They had to be undergoing surgery lasting between 30 and 120 minutes, and undertaking a preoperative fast of 6 hours for solid foods and 2 hours for clear liquids.
The following parameters were monitored: non-invasive blood pressure (NIBP), heart rate (HR), pulse oximetry (SpO2), breathing frequency and temperature. These values were recorded upon arrival to the operating room, after premedication, after induction, every 5 min during the procedure, before extubation, 5 min after extubation, and every 15 min afterwards up to a maximum of 60 min. In addition to the above parameters, end-tidal concentrations of sevoflurane and remifentanil dosages were recorded during anesthetic administration.
