Use of entonox plus carbon dioxide in the dental surgery.
The introduction of Entonox has made it possible to guarantee full oxygenation of the inspired gas of outpatients having nitrous oxide anaesthesia. The addition of 1-2% halothane enables good conditions to be obtained for minor surgery such as dental extraction. The use of an Entonox mixture containing 7% carbon dioxide to stimulate ventilation in patients receiving anaesthesia with nitrous oxide, oxygen and halothane is described.
