The investigation of gas exchange, central hemodynamics and real oxygen transport has shown expediency of using ether and fluothane as main anesthetic drugs in operations on the lungs in patients with a compensated form of chronic pulmonary respiratory insufficiency. Neuroleptoanalgesia decreased the operative risk as compared with ether and fluothane. A combined anesthesia with sodium hydroxybutyrate in association with drugs for NLA and tranquilizers is thought to be the method of choice in patients with a pronounced respiratory insufficiency.
