...Role. "People used to think of the anesthetist as a faceless person who suddenly appears in the surgery, does his little assignment, and then disappears," said Dr. Volpitto. "It's different today. Anesthesiologists see the patients in advance, and we play a role with the surgeon in preparing them for what is to come." The A.S.A.'s incoming president, Dr. John J. Bonica, drew attention to another vital role of the anesthesiologist-where surgery is not involved or at least not scheduled. "Suppose," he said, "a patient comes in with barbiturate poisoning. All his automatic nervous system reactions...

...Murray explained it all in her own profane way: "We fled persecution. We fled for our god-damned lives." The persecution, as she put it, began a month ago when a Baltimore anesthetist named Leonard Abramovitz and his wife accused Madalyn of inducing their 17-year-old daughter Susan to give up her Jewish faith and move into the Murray household.

Fifty years or so ago in Minnesota, when he was Avrom Hirsch Goldbogen, son of a Polish rabbi, the family was poor. But before he was 20, he and his brother Frank had made and lost nearly $1,000,000 in Chicago real estate ventures.

When the patient is unconscious or anesthetized and a doctor wants to give a quick-acting injection in a hurry, he often has trouble (especially in the very young and very fat) in finding a vein.

A few drugs cannot be administered in this way because they cause irritation, but most give no trouble and are absorbed in about a minute...
