Obstetrical Anesthesia and Analgesia With Sodium Iso-amyl Ethyl Barbiturate and Nitrous Oxid-Oxygen

Results in Obstetrical Practice.*

Philadelphia, Pa. Lecturer on Obstetrics, Hahnemann Medical College.

Abstract

HIS CLINICAL STUDY of the effects of sodium isoamylethyl barbiturate, commonly called sodium amytal, during parturition was made on a series of fifty-five cases, part ward. and part private, at the Hahnemann Hospital and the St. Luke's and Children's Homeopathic Hospital. There were 34 primiparas and 21 multiparas of which 10 were para II. 8 were para III. 2 were para IV, and 1 was para X. The fact that two-thirds of the cases were primiparas makes the study a reasonably fair test for a small series of cases, since a primipara requires analgesia over a longer period of time to obtain pain relief.
