title: The team approach to anaesthesia.
abstract: As many readers will be aware, Dr. MacRae, the current President of NATN, is an anaesthetist who has been much involved with the deliberations on the topic of assistance for the anaesthetist. Here he reflects on the present varied situations for the delivery of anaesthesia to the patient across Europe and on some legal aspects which affect those who are responsible for delivering the anaesthetic. This information can only contribute to the discussions on the future roles of nurses who work with medical anaesthetists.
