On the basis of an analysis of published data, the authors draw the attention of medical circles to generally- and little-known facts of using a variety of general and local anesthesia types by Russian doctors. It is pointed out that not the very first application based on a calendar date of using a method but the first contribution made into the medical science and supported by efforts promoting such method should be regarded as genuine priority. Prominent medical figures are listed, i.e. ⋯ Katsaurov, A. V. Vishnevsky, whose priority in certain anesthesia variations, as the authors believe it, is indisputable.

[Effectiveness of oxygen therapy for pulmonary edema in patients with hypertensive crisis before hospitalization].
The oxygen therapy, involving the KI-3M respiratory apparatus administered in the positive pressure regimen on expiration (8-10 cm aq. c.), used, before hospitalization, within the complex therapy of patients with pulmonary edema triggered by hypertensive crisis arrests fast enough the pulmonary edema, cuts the working time of an ER crew and promotes the ER efficiency. The key clinical manifestations of pulmonary edema were found to begin to go down on minutes 5 to 10 after the administration of artificial lungs ventilation (ALV) by oxygen with the positive pressure being on expiration end; such signs were totally stopped in 20-25 minutes.

[Use of epidural analgesia for the arresting of pronounced lumbar pains].
A combination of local anesthetics (2% lydokaine solution, 2 mg/kg; 0.5% bupivakaine solution, 0.4 mg/kg or 0.75% ropivakaine solution, 0.55 mg/kg), promedol (20 mg) and corticosteroids (125 mg hydrocortisone or 80 mg kenalog) was epidurally administered in 78 patients to arrest the pronounced root pain syndrome of the lumbar-sacral localization provoked by intervertebral disk hernias. The most prolonged analgesic effect was registered in groups, whose patients received bupivakaine or ropivakaine, which prevented the onset of pain before the antiinflammatory effect of corticosteroids started. The patient must be informed well in advance about the possibility of a momentary relapse of pains and about the intensification (at the same time moment) of pharmacotherapy prescribed by neuropathologist.
