Anesthesia, General
Clinical Practice of Inhalation Anesthesia With Sevoflurane in China
Until recently, there was a lack of understanding and consensus among Chinese anesthesiologists how they should practice general anesthesia with volatile anesthetics, since there was no standard of inhalation practice.
