    Notes: Summary We compared the cost-effectiveness of general anaesthetic agents in adult and paediatric day surgery populations. We randomly assigned 1063 adult and 322 paediatric elective patients to one of four (adult) or two (paediatric) anaesthesia groups. Total costs were calculated from individual patient resource use to 7 days post discharge. Incremental cost-effectiveness ratios were expressed as cost per episode of postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) avoided. In adults, variable secondary care costs were higher for propofol induction and propofol maintenance (propofol/propofol; p 〈 0.01) than other groups and lower in propofol induction and isoflurane maintenance (propofol/isoflurane; p 〈 0.01). In both studies, predischarge PONV was higher if sevoflurane/sevoflurane (p 〈 0.01) was used compared with use of propofol for induction. In both studies, there was no difference in postdischarge outcomes at Day 7. Sevoflurane/sevoflurane was more costly with higher PONV rates in both studies. In adults, the cost per extra episode of PONV avoided was £296 (propofol/propofol vs. propofol/ sevoflurane) and £333 (propofol/sevoflurane vs. propofol/isoflurane).

    Notes: [Auszug] WITH reference to Sir Cyril Fox's interesting article under the above heading1, I wish to make certain comments. I think that nobody maintains that the Kohat-Potwar Saline Series is of post-Eocene age. As Prof. Sahni says2, his “fossil evidence is consistent with ...

    Notes: [Auszug] THE members of certain pairs of foraminiferal genera (Nummulites and Operculinoides, Assilina and Operculina, etc.) with flat spiral tests are distinguished from each other only by the rates (or angles) of opening of their spires. It therefore seems anomalous that no ruling exists as a guide in ...

    Notes: [Auszug] WITH regard to recent letters on this subject1, I would recall in addition that Mr. R. V. Anderson reported finding Quercus in the Punjab Saline Series2; while Foraminifera said to be from the same were referred by me to Ranikot species. Commenting on my report, ...

    Notes: [Auszug] IN a previous letter1 I showed that the Ranikot (Palæocene) Sea of India must have extended over the whole length of the Himalayas, from eastern Tibet to Waziristan. More recently, some interesting fresh evidence has been found regarding the extent of the Ranikot Sea; for Mr. A. ...

    Notes: [Auszug] MR. E. S. PINFOLD and I have recently made a special examination, on behalf of the Attock Oil Company, of the Eocene beds of the Punjab Salt Range, with the view of determining their exact age. It will be remembered that opinions as to this have varied greatly in the past, some geologists ...

    Notes: [Auszug] I SEE that Dr. Heron1 now accepts the fact that Ranikot beds exist in Waziristan. The evidence for this is, indeed, overwhelming, as I have pointed out elsewhere2. He says, however, that Dr. Coulson could not state whether the Khirthar overlaps on the Ranikot to ...

    Notes: [Auszug] WITH reference to my preliminary note1 on the results of work by Mr. Pinfold and myself on the Eocene beds of the Punjab Salt Range, we have now determined the fact that, of the six sections of the local Eocene, the lower three (Dhak Pass Beds, Khairabad Limestone and Patala ...
