The combination of general anesthesia in thoracic surgery. This article outlines the principles and application of modern combination anesthesia in thoracic operations. It emphasizes the importance of preventing lung collapse, paradoxical respiration, and mediastinal flutter. The method involves using a mixture of anesthetic agents—typically nitrous oxide (N₂O), barbiturates, and curare—to achieve analgesia, unconsciousness, and muscle relaxation. The article also details premedication protocols and intraoperative management, highlighting the advantages of combination anesthesia in reducing postoperative complications and improving patient outcomes.
