Abstract
Since the founding of New China, anesthesiology has been developing rapidly and large special teams of experts and technical personnel have been trained. Anesthetics and instruments of everyday use are produced within the country. A unique method of anesthesia has been established in China by the creation and application of acupuncture anesthesia, investigation and utilization of Chinese herb anesthesia, widespread use of epidural technique, and intravenous combined anesthesia and delivery of inhalational agents like halothane and methoxyflurane by home-produced anesthetic machines.
