Anaesthesia 2019 | Developmental neurotoxicity

Developmental neurotoxicity; can human infants exposed to anaesthesia early in their early development really be facing risks which we were previously unaware of?

Presented by Joff Lacey with his guest Hugh Hemmings Senior Associate Dean for Research, Professor and Chair of Anesthesiology at Weill Cornell Medicine.
