Frequently Asked Questions

For minor surgical procedures, your child might be eligible for discharge a few hours following the surgery. The healthcare team overseeing your child's care will ensure they are fully alert, with stable vital signs (including heart rate, breathing, temperature, and blood pressure), and capable of ingesting liquids orally without experiencing nausea.

It's possible that your child might experience increased sleepiness during the initial day or two. Additionally, your child could encounter instances of nausea, vomiting, or reduced appetite. These issues typically stem from the effects of Anaesthesia and tend to resolve within 24 to 48 hours after returning home.

Recovery varies depending on the procedure. Some children may need only a short recovery period, while others might require longer hospital stays and follow-up care.

Pediatric surgeries are performed by highly trained specialists in facilities equipped for child care, making them safe. Risks are minimised through thorough evaluations and protocols.

Absolutely, seeking a second opinion is a valid choice in Pediatric surgery. It helps ensure that you are well-informed about the proposed treatment plan and have explored all available options for your child's health.
