Objective To report on the prevalence of postoperative morbidity in children undergoing tooth extraction under chair dental general anaesthetic (CDGA) in relation to pre-operative dental anxiety and anaesthetic induction distress. Design A prospective national study. Setting Twenty-five Scottish DGA centres in 2001. Subjects and method Four hundred and seven children (mean age 6.6 years; range: 2.3 to 14.8 years; 52% male). Before CDGA, the Modified Child Dental Anxiety (MCDAS) and Modified Dental Anxiety (MDAS) Scales were completed for children and accompanying adult respectively; the latter also returned a morbidity questionnaire 24 hours and one week post-operatively. Anaesthetic induction distress was scored immediately before CDGA induction using the Children's Hospital of Eastern Ontario Pain Scale (CHEOPS). Results The mean MCDAS score was 24.2 (population norm 18.2); 21% of adults were anxious. Forty-two per cent of children had induction distress; this related to their MCDAS scores (r = 0.43, p < 0.001, Pearson Product Moment Correlation Coefficient). Morbidity at 24 hours and seven days was 63% and 24% respectively; this related to MCDAS scores (r = 0.15, p = 0.029 and r = 0.17, p = 0.009, Pearson Product Moment Correlation Coefficient) and to induction distress (chi(2) = 7.14, p = 0.007 and chi(2) = 11.70, p = 0.001). Conclusion The majority of children suffered next day morbidity and many still had symptoms a week later. Most children were dentally anxious; this related to induction distress and postoperative morbidity.
