Children deserve a safe and pain free perioperative period.

Created by perioperative physicians at the Kentucky Children's Hospital.

Hoping to make this a global initiative, we encourage pediatric anesthesiologists, surgeons, intensivists and nurses to join with us and contribute to this portal.

This was the most downloaded article for Pediatric Anesthesia in the year 2009.

Dr.Morton talks in his editorial about this much debated topic in an elegant fashion. Good reading for all of us who want to "securely secure" a kid's airway everyday.
