Although the issue of clinical introduction of chloroform in Spain was rather controversial, we can assure now with no doubt that first news of its discovery reached our country by the end of November and beginning of December of 1847. The cities first receiving those first news were Cádiz, Madrid, Barcelona, and Santiago de Compostela; in the latter two cities, during the first days of December, the new anesthetic agent was already available and the first experiments on dogs were conducted in 19th Sunday and first clinical assays in Barcelona and in Santiago de Compostela, the first experiments in Spain, were carried out in December 20th. Spanish scientific and daily press, particularly, press of Barcelona and Madrid promptly reflected the events and informed their readers about the discovery of chloroform as anesthetic. Our research deals with some of these aspects and we believe that will contribute to clarify not fully studied points to date.
尽管在西班牙临床上引入氯仿的问题颇具争议，但我们现在可以毫无疑问地确定，其发现的最初消息在1847年11月底和12月初就已传到我国。最早收到这些消息的城市是加的斯、马德里、巴塞罗那和圣地亚哥-德孔波斯特拉；在12月的头几天，后两个城市就已经有了这种新型麻醉剂，并在12月的第19个周日对狗进行了首次实验，巴塞罗那和圣地亚哥-德孔波斯特拉的首次临床检测，即西班牙的首次实验，于12月20日进行。西班牙的科学和日报，特别是巴塞罗那和马德里的报纸，迅速报道了这些事件，并向读者通报了氯仿作为麻醉剂的发现。我们的研究涉及其中一些方面，并且相信将有助于澄清迄今尚未充分研究的要点。
