About this trial
This study will propose and evaluate a standardized LeFort osteotomy anesthetic protocol for pediatric patients at Johns Hopkins Hospital. There are two cohorts to this study: a prospective cohort who will receive the study anesthesia protocol and a historical cohort that received standard of care. The investigators hope this will help to minimize unnecessary postoperative pain management, inpatient stay, and long-term morbidity and mortality in these patients.
