Am 28. März 2017 wurden die mit Spannung erwarteten Ergebnisse der europäischen APRICOT-Studie veröffentlicht, an der sich auch 29 Einrichtungen aus Deutschland mit insgesamt 2232 Kindernarkosen beteiligt hatten (entsprechend 7,2% aller eingeschlossenen Fälle) [1]. Erwartungsgemäß kam es stante pede zu lebhaften Kontroversen darüber, wie diese Ergebnisse zu werten seien und welche Konsequenzen man daraus ziehen sollte – oder nicht. Wie bei vielen kinderanästhesiologischen Themen der vergangenen Jahre gingen auch hier die Emotionen hoch. Was also war passiert?
