Abstract
Arterial blood-gases and lung volumes were measured in 48 patients before and after upper abdominal surgery. There was no significant difference between the results of 25 patients ventilated with oxygen and nitrogen during anaesthesia compared with a comparable group which received oxygen and nitrous oxide.Keywords
