A simplified, safe and flexible technique of anesthesia, based on a limited number of relatively cheap drugs, and allowing ventilation with air, was applied to 60 patients undergoing operations of at least 60 minutes' duration. The required depth of hypnosis was produced by intravenous diazepam or gamma-OH, whilst droperidol and fentanyl provided a satisfactory degree of sedation and analgesia. Pancuronium bromide was used for muscle relaxation. Spontaneous respiration was resumed immediately after postoperative use of nalorphine and neostigmine. The anesthetic course was smooth and predictable, with cardiovascular stability and an uneventful postoperative recovery. Emphasis is laid on the suitability of this procedure on the Battle Field or in Developing Countries, and on its safety (no toxic volatile liquids). (Acta anaesth. belg., 1976, 27, 25-34).
