Pediatric Anesthesia Quality Improvement Project

This study, called the Pediatric Anesthesia Quality Improvement Project, is collecting information about children who receive anesthesia for surgery. It's an observational study, meaning researchers are watching and collecting data, not testing a new treatment. The goal is to understand how often problems (adverse events) happen during or after anesthesia in children up to 21 years old. By collecting this information, researchers hope to find ways to prevent these problems in the future. The study is looking to include a very large number of participants, up to 5,000,000 children, and is currently unclear about its recruitment status.
