The Anti-Emetic Action of Fluothane: A Comparative Study in Obstetrical Anaesthesia

RALPH R. NOVOA M.D., A.P.D. & S.O.E.(SPAIN)1

1 Notre-Dame Hospital, Department of Anesthesia, Montreal, P.Q.

This paper presents a comparison between the anti-emetic properties of Fluothane, Trilene, and cyclopropane during obstetrical anaesthesia in 250 unselected deliveries.

A marked reduction in the incidence of vomiting during obstetrical anaesthesia has been obtained with the use of controlled concentrations of Fluothane (Fluotec apparatus) and a low percentage of this agent. The advantages and disadvantages of Fluothane in obstetrical anaesthesia are enumerated and the tabulated results are self-evident.
