Swedish anesthesiology is greatly indebted to the preeminent American anesthesiologist, and first professor of anesthesiology in the world, Ralph M. Waters. It was in part because of the influence and teaching of this great pioneer that modern anesthesiology became firmly established in Sweden. Approximately 60 residents were trained by Dr. Waters. They later became chairmen of their own university departments of anesthesia and preached and practiced the Waters gospel of professionalism in academic anesthesiology. Among these were four Swedes: Olle Friberg, Eric Nilsson, Karl-Gustav Dhunér, and the author. Through these Swedish pioneers and their numerous disciples, Waters had a profound influence on the development of Swedish anesthesia. The author reports his personal memories from his contact with Ralph Waters.
瑞典麻醉学极大地得益于杰出的美国麻醉学家、世界上首位麻醉学教授拉尔夫·M·沃特斯。正是由于这位伟大先驱的影响和教导，现代麻醉学才在瑞典得以稳固确立。沃特斯博士培养了大约60名住院医师。他们后来成为各自大学麻醉学系的系主任，并在学术麻醉学领域宣扬和践行沃特斯的专业主义信条。其中有四位瑞典人：奥勒·弗里贝里、埃里克·尼尔松、卡尔 - 古斯塔夫·杜内尔以及本文作者。通过这些瑞典先驱及其众多弟子，沃特斯对瑞典麻醉学的发展产生了深远影响。作者讲述了他与拉尔夫·沃特斯接触的个人回忆。
