We consider that the present state of postoperative analgesia is unsatisfactory because drugs are given intermittently and usually only at the patients' request and with nurses' acquiescence. A procedure for routine continuous pethidine infusion, suitable for administration and control by the nursing staff is described. The results of a trial on patients after major surgery are summarised. We believe the procedure to be more efficient and effective than those presently in use.
