[Clinical Investigations about the behaviour of pulmonary respiration and cardiovascular circulation after the application of Rohypnol for basis-sedation for microsurgical operations in otolaryngology in local anesthesia (author's transl)].

The influence of analog-sedation on pulmonary respiration and cardiovascular circulation caused by the action of pentazocine/flunitrazepam respectively in microsurgical operations under local anesthesia in otolaryngology is investigated in two collectives of patients. The results are presented and the hazards, especially the hypoxemia and its avoidance are discussed.
