Abstract
The minimum alveolar concentration (estimate of spread) of halothane which was determined in 42 Chinese, Nepalese or European patients was found to be 0.70% (0.66-0.74%) in Chinese and 0.70% (0.65-0.76%) in Nepalese and 0.68% (0.65-0.72%) in Europeans, using the Spearman Kärber method of analysis. This preliminary trial suggests that there is no ethnic difference in the minimum alveolar concentration of halothane between Asians and Europeans.
