“…Fluctuations in blood pressure and pulse rate in response to developing awareness are the rule. Some workers' regard an increase in pulse rate as the most reliable sign of inadequate analgesia (Morgan et ah, 1974;Holmes, 1976), or an indication of decreasing analgesia (Florence, 1978).…”

NEUROLEPTANALGESIA is described for its use in the management of otolaryngologic cases undergoing elective surgery. 100 cases have been reviewed extensively. The advantages and possible problems are outlined. It seems to be a highly satisfactory alternative to conventional general anesthetic techniques for most ear, nose and throat procedures and operations, where quiescence rather than anesthesia is required. The absence of direct myocardial depression and a marked decrease in operative and post-operative morbidity constitute the principal advantages.

“…4 ,5 Fentanyl produces good analgesia and reflex suppression, without significant cardiovascular side effects, when compared with equivalent doses of other opiates in man. 6 The purpose of this study was to assess an anaesthetic technique employing intravenous etomidate by bolus injection and then continuous infusion, with intermittent fentanyl supplementation, muscle relaxation and controlled pulmonary ventilation with an air/oxygen mixture for major abdominal surgery.…”

A technique of total intravenous anaesthesia using etomidate by bolus intravenous (IV) injection for induction and by continuous intravenous infusion for maintenance of anaesthesia, with supplementary intravenous fentanyl analgesia, is described. Muscle relaxation was provided by competitive neuromuscular blockade, allowing controlled ventilation of the lungs with oxygen-enriched air. Arterial blood pressure, heart rate and rhythm remained stable throughout the procedure. Few complications were encountered of which the most significant was a 13% incidence of nausea and/or vomiting. Pain on injection, abnormal muscular movements on induction, and post operative venous sequelae were uncommon. Patients were easily rousable shortly after termination of drug infusion. The technique proved acceptable to the patient, surgeon and experienced anaesthetist and, thereby, would appear to offer a reasonable alternative to the more conventional inhalational anaesthetic technique.
