Close scavenging experimental and preliminary clinical studies of a method of reducing anaesthetic gas contamination.

abstract：BACKGROUND:During the last two decades, epidural analgesia has become 'a gold standard' for labour pain in most Western countries. Newer short-acting opioids given systemically represent an alternative for adequate pain relief without using regional techniques. With this survey, we wish to explore how Norwegian hospita...
