In 1853 Queen Victoria inhaled the ‘blessed’ chloroform for 53 minutes, provided by pioneer anaesthetist John Snow for the delivery of her 8th child. His choice to give the Queen chloroform was controversial, because by now doctors realised it was dangerous. Episode 5 out now!

The debate over chloroform’s safety travelled around the world to Hyderabad, India. There, Surgeon Major Edward Lawrie would embark on research thar would become known as The Hyderabad Chloroform Commissions.

Inhaled drugs had been used in anaesthesia for over a century before Dr Edmond ‘Ted’ Eger II started his career, but it’s his work that underpins our understanding of anaesthetic gases and how we use them today. Find out more about Ted in Episode 6 now!

Almost since chloroform’s introduction, doctors had argued about its safety, but in 1914 Dr AG Levy would provide an answer. In certain circumstances, chloroform could induce fatal cardiac arrhythmias. Catch up with all episodes of Ether/Or now! podfollow.com/etheror

Just finished listening to this podcast by Ether/Or. It's very very very good. I'm biased as an anaesthetist, but if you're just interested in the history of anaesthesia, I'm sure you'll enjoy it too. Series 2?
