A modified neuroleptanalgesia technique, obviating endotracheal intubation, using haloperidol or droperidol and phenoperidine, is described. With this technique 80 per cent of patients undergoing stereotactic procedures showed striking analgesia, while fewer than 10 per cent developed sedation severe enough to interfere with the operation. Factors affecting analgesia and sedation were examined, and side-effects studied.
