Abstract
A medical training film that demonstrates techniques of anesthesia for minor surgery involving the oral cavity, pharynx and larynx. The first part of the film features anesthesia for a simulated oral surgery on a 23 year old male volunteer. This is followed by suspension laryngoscopy on a 74 year old male patient. The film highlights the following procedures and techniques: Fluothane with air, drawover vaporization, respiratory monitoring, airway management with two nasopharyngeal airways and maximally assisted respiration. The film proclaims that inhalation anesthesia, such as Fluothane, for minor oral surgeries is safer than other anesthesia techniques.
