Abstract:
:The Reverend Doctor Robert Laws (1851-1934) followed in the footsteps of David Livingstone to Central Africa. At the beginning of a long and distinguished career as a medical missionary in Christian service to the country that has since become the Republic of Malawi, he was a prime mover in the setting up of a mission station at Cape Maclear, on the shores of Lake Malawi (formerly known as Lake Nyasa and closely associated with the discoveries of Doctor Livingstone). There, on 2 March 1876, Laws used chloroform to produce surgical anaesthesia when he operated on a young African male who had a cystic tumour above his left eye.

ANAESTHESIA文献大全abstract::This is a review of 136 patients who have undergone corrective surgery for congenital heart disease with the aid of profound hypothermia in a 6-year period. Almost all patients were less than one year old and less than 10 kg. In 1979 the average age was 3.4 months and the average weight was 4.1 kg in 34 infants. The h...
