:10:03
That's right, dear,
and you'll have a nice long sleep.

:10:06
Pre-op, she's received a 0.0 1
of Demerol and 0.4 of atropine...

:10:09
...so believe me,
she's pretty relaxed.

:10:11
l'll say she's relaxed!
Come on, Mrs. Greenly, on your back.

:10:16
That's it.
:10:18
-Gonna meet me for lunch?
-l don't know.

:10:20
l'll let you know, okay?
:10:23
l'll be in the lounge.
:10:25
Henry might be calling,
and if he does, you know....

:10:28
-Okay, no problem.
-Yeah, okay.

:10:32
-Good afternoon, Tom.
-Afternoon, Jim. How's our lady?

:10:35
Just about ready.
:10:36
l'm still awake.
:10:37
-But not for long, dear.
-You promise?

:10:40
l'll induce with sodium Pentothal,
give an lV by syringe.

:10:43
Nance, what l want you to do...
:10:45
...is start counting from 1 00
backwards real slow, okay?

:10:49
Here we go.
:10:50
-A hundred.
-Ninety-nine...

:10:54
...ninety-eight...
:10:57
...ninety-seven...
:10:59
...ninety-six....
:11:03
lt's quick. Stop the pentothal.
:11:05
You see, pentothal isn't
really an anesthetic.

:11:08
Any deep pain right now
and she'd wake right up.

:11:10
What we need for anesthesia is gas.
:11:13
First l'll inject some succinylcholine.
:11:16
l want you to watch her chest gauge
because she'll stop breathing.

:11:23
She's now experiencing
complete muscular paralysis.

:11:27
She's got three minutes
to breathe or she'll suffocate.

:11:30
So now we intubate.
:11:32
Taking a laryngoscope like so.
:11:35
Hold her head
in an extended position.

:11:37
Enter laterally, put up
the base of the tongue, up and out...

:11:40
...visualizing the trachea.
:11:42
There it is, fellas. Take a look.
:11:45
You see it?
lt's right over there.

:11:48
Come on, guys!
:11:50
Take our tube and enter here.
:11:55
ln the middle of surgery,
l'll switch over to the telothane.

:11:59
Stirrups up?
