Etomidate (Hypnomidate; Ethnor) in an alcoholic solution was used as the hypnotic component of a technique of total intravenous anaesthesia in an open pilot evaluation in 50 patients undergoing surgery. No anaesthetic gases were used. Despite cardiovascular stability, lack of respiratory depression and a short awakening time, unwanted movements by the patients made total intravenous anaesthesia with this technique unsatisfactory.
依托咪酯（乙咪酯；Hypnomidate；Ethnor）的酒精溶液被用作一种全静脉麻醉技术的催眠成分，对50例接受手术的患者进行了开放试验评估。未使用麻醉气体。尽管该技术具有心血管稳定性、无呼吸抑制且苏醒时间短等优点，但患者的不自主运动使得采用该技术的全静脉麻醉效果不尽人意。
