Anaesthesist. 1979 Aug;28(8):404-8.
Anaesthesia for newborn infants is rarely undertaken in hospitals which have no paediatric surgical department. Using the usual anaesthetic equipment for children on newborns involves many hazards, mainly because of the small respiratory volumes of these little patients, the danger of large deadspace and the high resistance of valves in the equipment. A resuscitation bag for newborns proved to be easy and safe as anaesthesia apparatus, if connected to the output of the anaesthetic machine. Blood gases and respiratory volumes were measured in 17 newborn infants (body weight 1,600 g to 5,280 g) during anaesthesia using endotracheal tubes, masks, controlled and spontaneous respiration.
在没有小儿外科的医院里，很少对新生儿进行麻醉。将常规的儿童麻醉设备用于新生儿存在许多风险，主要是因为这些小患者的呼吸量小、存在大死腔的危险以及设备中阀门的高阻力。事实证明，如果将新生儿复苏袋连接到麻醉机的输出端，作为麻醉设备使用既简便又安全。在17名新生儿（体重1600克至5280克）使用气管内导管、面罩、控制呼吸和自主呼吸进行麻醉期间，测量了血气和呼吸量。
