Common Questions
What is your pediatric experience?

•Having spent the last 6 months of residency doing ONLY pediatric cases helped Dr. Abreu develop the skills to take care for children.
Pediatric Sedation
•This background has developed the skills needed to make your child feel at ease and comfortable during their anesthesia experience.
How do you tailor anesthesia for children?
•Anesthesia is calculated using each child’s age and weight. This helps deliver the precise amount of medicine needed.
What type of anesthesia will be used?
A light oral sedative given first reduces anxiety. Your child will breathe Nitrous Oxide (laughing gas) at which point an IV will be started so that intravenous medications may be given. Children do NOT remember this part.
What are the side effects?
Prolonged drowsiness/grogginess and in rare instances mild nausea or vomiting may occur. This is usually self limited and not a major concern.
