[Nurseling and children general anaesthesia in brain neuroradiology: from gaz tomoencephalography to brain computer tomography (author's transl)].

The authors give their experiences in nurseling and children brain neuroradiology anaesthesia. Sodium gammahydroxybutyrate has been definitively adopted after multiples anaesthesial protocoles for the gaz tomoencephalographic exam, known for its technical risks. The gamma OH gives a perfect cardiac and pulmonary stability in difficult conditions, with normal intracranial pression, even in children anaesthesia with Halothane (0.

[Blood gas levels using spontaneous breathing and the Bain circuit. Our experience during head surgery (author's transl)].

The authors use the Bain Circuit with spontaneous breathing during head surgery (neurosurgery and ophthalmological procedures). Suitable for both adult and pediatric use, it seems to be, due to its unique characteristics, the choice circuit for all anaesthesia procedures in which the physician does not have direct control over the patient's head. Comparative analysis of blood gas levels is effected, on the one hand in children connected to a Digby-Leigh system and Bain Circuit, and on the other hand in adults, some of whom are connected to a two-way system and the other under a filter circuit; all of the patients are then connected to the Bain Circuit.
