Cautionary Points in Anesthesia

The practice of covering a patient's face with a towel after operation, while he, still unconscious, is being taken on a stretcher to his room is to be condemned. So is anesthetiing etherizer away from an unconscious patient to begin anesthetsizing another case, unless some attentive and exper-ienced assistant is specifically notified to watch the patient's gradual recovery from anesthesia. I have seen a patient vomit under such circumstances, when no attendant was close at hand to see that asphyxia did not occur.-Dr. J. B. Roberts; Therap. Gaz.
