An expert anesthetist is quit note every change, and can so "nurse" his patient that it is seldom he has any anxiety from the appearance of untoward symptoms.

No man can have confidence in his power to administer an anesthetic safely who has not a very clear idea as to what constitutes a danger signal and a definite knowledge of how to proceed instantly and without hesitation to get his patient into a safer condition.—WV.
