ResumoSummary The use of compressed air‐oxygen mixtures to replace nitrous oxide‐oxygen in general anaesthesia was investigated in 378 patients. There were neither prolongations of recovery time nor instances of awareness under anaesthesia. The cost of general anaesthesia using compressed air‐oxygen was about half that for nitrous oxide‐oxygen mixtures.
