Abstract
Neonates and infants, children with ASA physical status III or poorer, and emergency- and cardiothoracic surgery are associated with a higher postoperative mortality. Anaesthesia- or surgery-related complications contribute to mortality in only a small amount of the deaths, indicating the relative safety of paediatric surgical and anaesthetic procedures.
