Observations on Spinal Analgesia

on account of the many accidents that occurred, and latterly tropocaine, stovaine, alypin and novocaine have been most in favour. Of these four, tropocaine and stovaine have been most generally used; tropocaine has been employed in some hundreds of cases in Germany, whilst stovaine has also been widely used?particularly by Barker of University College Hospital. I have used stovaine in fifteen cases during the last few weeks, and, as in some instances, the results have been abnormal, it is advisable to put the facts on record.
