Abstract

The 2022 Pediatric Anesthesia and NeuroDevelopment Assessment (PANDA) Meeting included an update on preclinical research in the field of anesthetic-induced developmental neurotoxicity (AIDN), with a focus on key developments since last meeting 3 years prior. The focus was on two areas: (1) The rapid growth in reports from nonhuman primate (NHP) studies, which play a pivotal role in understanding what elements of AIDN are likely to translate to human patients; and (2) The exploration of new targets, phenotypes, and exposure paradigms that have been conducted in rodent models. The purpose of this commentary article is to summarize this discussion and expand upon it both to update the reader on key developments in AIDN research and to highlight the importance of continued animal model research.
