The last chapters deal with the conclusion and recommendation.The main source of information is retrograde analysis of the data available in the department of Paediatric Anaesthesiology, Kanti Children’s Hospital. A total of 1500 samples were selected including routine and emergency cases.

It is found that the analysis of data is a complicated procedure. But it reflected the nature of the cases handled and the anaesthetic line of management. Lot of inferences can be made with the available data for future projects for development of anaesthesia departments and specially paediatric anaesthesia department.The varieties of cases were common to rarer and interesting cases. The cases like inguinal hernias and hydrocoels become the ba seline cases occurring in the department. The challenging cases like Tracheo-oesophageal fistula comes to the department and has some success stories. As a whole, the performance of the department is encouraging. The analysis of different combination of services with reference to age groups and weight groups reflected some ground to think on the management of paediatric anaesthesia cases.
