Bring your child’s complete medical history, past surgeries, illnesses, diagnostic test results, and immunisation records. Include current medications and allergy information. Note symptoms, concerns, family medical history, and recent growth charts. Prepare questions about diagnosis, treatment options, recovery, and follow-up care.

 

When consulting paediatric surgeons ask about the specific diagnosis and detailed treatment plan for your child. Inquire about the risks and benefits associated with the surgery, and if there are any alternative treatments available. Ask about pain management strategies, the length of the hospital stay, and any potential complications.

 

Pediatric surgeries often use general anesthesia, which renders the child unconscious and ensures pain-free surgery. In some cases, local or regional anesthesia may be used for certain procedures or in specific areas of the body.
