title: [Local anaesthesia--modern outlook, faults and complications (author's transl)].
abstract: Development of general anaesthesia has reduced the amount of operations performed by local anaesthesia considerably. Inevitably this will cause than junior traines in large hospitals will be less informed and instructed in local anaesthesia than his demand will be after he has left the hospital. New results of mechanism of action of local anaesthesia are given and compared with other similar drugs. Tetracain is less efficient than the drugs of the amidtype as far as surface anaesthesia activity is concerned and Procain is surpassed by amidtype anaesthesia drugs for infiltration and conductive anaesthesia use.
