The following paper describes the presence of a potential hazard when anaesthetic anti-static rubber elephant tubing is connected between electrical equipment with a metal case, and a patient. The conductive properties of this tubing are shown to increase as temperature rises and to be permanently changed when the tubing is exposed to standard autoclaving procedures. Reasons for changes in conductivity are discussed in detail, and two solutions are offered enabling the patient to be protected against large leakage currents, yet retaining the anti-static properties of the gas circuit.
以下论文描述了在将麻醉用抗静电橡胶象鼻管连接在带有金属外壳的电气设备与患者之间时存在的潜在危险。结果表明，该管道的导电性能会随着温度升高而增强，并且在管道经受标准高压灭菌程序时会发生永久性变化。详细讨论了导电性变化的原因，并提供了两种解决方案，既能保护患者免受大泄漏电流的影响，又能保持气体回路的抗静电性能。
