[Significance of Alfatesine in anesthesia for multiple dental extractions before major cardiac surgery].
This technique of anaesthesia used for oral surgical operations such as, multiple dental extractions, apical resection, carried out in cardiac patients before major cardiac surgery under extra-corporeal circulation, for insertion of valvular prostheses or aorto-coronary by-pass operations, has passed by various stages. The present technique associating phenoperidine-alfatesine-suxame-thonium-N2o-o2, was used in the last 58 cases. It presents a certain number of advantages compared with previous techniques: -very stable level of anaesthesia whatever the duration of the operation, -satisfactory cardio-vascular stability, -almost constant absence of hypo-excitability of the myocardium even in patients in poor cardiac condition before the operation with uninterrupted treatment with digitalis and diuretics, -good quality of awakening.
