RESUMO
Alcuronium and atracurium were used on a randomised basis as part of the anaesthetic technique for out-patient gynaecological laparoscopy. Conditions for intubation and relaxation were similar but there was a marked decrease in the incidence of minor postoperative sequelae in the atracurium group.

Fifty-six women having out-patient gynaecological laparoscopies were studied to determine anaesthetic problems and postoperative morbidity. It is concluded that the procedure is safe, and although the postoperative morbidity appears high it is very acceptable to the patient.

In a double blind trial, the effect of prophylactic low-dose subcutaneous heparin or saline on peri-operative blood loss was studied in 100 women undergoing abdominal hysterectomy. Mean blood loss was 401 (SEM 75) ml and 246 (SEM 15) ml in the women who received heparin or saline, respectively. Coagulation studies were carried out during the pre- and post-operative phases in order to assess the contribution of any coagulation abnormalities to operative blood loss. In identifying patients at risk, platelet function tests were of some value.
