Early Developments in Anesthesia and Pain Management with Special Reference to Children
Journal Title: Journal of Anesthetic Research and Pain Medicine - Year 2016, Vol 1, Issue 1
Abstract
It is useful when inaugurating a new journal on Anesthesia Research and Pain management to know something about the beginnings and development of the field. Earlier doctors giving anesthetics had many problems to overcome. They had to try new drugs and develop new techniques and how best to perform them. Some of these have passed into oblivion but others are now taken for granted without the thought that someone had to work them out. It is hoped that this paper will provide some interesting insights about what has gone before.
