AB -  ANAMSTHETIST TO THE PORTSMOLrlX A N D SOUTHERN COUNTES EYE A N D EAR HOSPITAL RECOGNITION danger of histotoxic anoxia associated with the of the prolonged use of ethyl chloride has fostered a tradition that the drug is administered with greatest safety when given on an open mask, for short periods only. But if histotoxic anoxia is the main associated danger it is best countered by eliminating all anoxic anoxia and employing undiluted oxygen as the vehicular gas, or by employing such small quantities of ethyl chloride that the histotoxic element is negligible. Techniques have been described for the prolonged or intermittent administration of ethyl chloride using diluted oxygen as the vehicle. E. Caillaud' designed a vaporiser employing a caloric " bank of sodium acetate, using atmospheric air as the vehicle. G . Moriarty2 described a modification of the Loosely ball-valve for incorporation in dental gas apparatus to allow the intermittent use of ethyl chloride. U. M. Westella described a technique of spraying liquid ethyl chloride into the empty chloroform bottle of a Boyle's machine as an adjuvant to nitrous oxide and oxygen during operations of considerable length and in poor risk patients. With the latter method however,
