QU British Veterinary Journal 1950; 116: 283-291

PT journal article

AB (1) Electroplectic anaesthesia is defined and its features described and discussed. The importance of the convulsion as an index of satisfactory procedure is emphasized. (2) The existing practices are outlined and criticised, and the requirements designated. (3) The recent use of the method for surgery in man is noticed. With correct techniques based on knowledge of the comparative requirements, it could be made available for veterinary clinical purposes as a means of instantly induced anaesthesia, automatically operated, completely reliable, and probably 100 per cent safe. (4) The veterinary applications of such a method are nominated, together with the evident contra-indications. Its special promise of convenience for short surgical measures of all kind; for the induction of anaesthesia prior to maintenance by ordinary chemical means; and for handling troublesome subjects, is emphasized.
