1. Valerius Cordus | 2. Paracelsus
26
He observed that ether caused chickens to fall asleep and awaken unharmed.
Paracelsus
27
A medical student from Rochester, New York, may have given the first ether anesthetic in January 1842. He administered ether, from a towel, to a young woman.
William E. Clarke
28
William E. Clarke administered ether, from a towel, to a young woman named?
Hobbie
29
One of Hobbie's teeth was then extracted without pain by a dentist named?
Elijah Pope
30
Two months later, on March 30, 1842, this man administered ether with a towel for surgical anesthesia in Jefferson, Georgia.
Crawford Williamson Long
31
Was the young man who Crawford Williamson Long administered ether through a towel, was already familiar with ether’s exhilarating effects, for he reported in a certificate that he had previously inhaled it and was fond of its use. He had two small tumors on his neck and was completed and was unaware of the removal of the tumors.
James M. Venable
32
In determining the first fee for anesthesia and | surgery, Long settled on a charge of?
2.00 USD
33
One of the first dentists to engender a solution was? He observed a lecture-exhibition on nitrous oxide by an itinerant “scientist,” _________, who encouraged members of the audience to inhale a sample of the gas.
Horace Wells | Gardner Quincy Colton
34
The following day, Colton gave Wells nitrous oxide before a fellow dentist, ________, extracted a tooth. Afterward Wells declared that he had not felt any pain and deemed the experiment a success.
William Riggs
35
In Boston, this man continued his interest in anesthesia and sought instruction from chemist and physician ________. After learning that ether dropped on the skin provided analgesia, he began experiments with inhaled ether, an agent that proved to be much more versatile than nitrous oxide. Bottles of liquid ether were easily transported, and the volatility of the drug permitted effective inhalation. The concentrations required for surgical anesthesia were so low that patients did not become hypoxic when breathing ether vaporized in air.
William Thomas Green Morton | Charles T. Jackson
36
After anesthetizing a pet dog, Morton became confident of his skills and anesthetized patients with ether in his dental office. Encouraged by his success, Morton sought an invitation to give a public demonstration in the Bullfinch amphitheater of the Massachusetts General Hospital (the site where Wells’ failed demonstration of the efficacy of nitrous oxide as a complete surgical anesthetic was incorrectly also thought to have occurred). Morton secured permission to provide an anesthetic to ________, a patient of surgeon John Collins Warren. Warren planned to excise a vascular lesion from the left side of his neck and was about to proceed when Morton arrived late. He had been delayed because he was obliged to wait for an instrument maker to complete a new inhaler.
Edward Gilbert Abbott
37
Who said, “Gentlemen, this is no humbug,” after performing a successful surgery under Morton's anesthesia to a patient named Edward Gilbert Abbott?
John Collins Warren

Letheon
39
A debate between Morton, Wells, and Jackson, regarding the ether discovery has subsequently been termed the?
ETHER CONTROVERSY
40
Was a successful obstetrician in Edinburgh, Scotland, | and among the first to use ether for the relief of labor pain.
James Young Simpson
41
Dissatisfied with ether, Simpson soon sought a more pleasant, rapid-acting anesthetic. He and his junior associates conducted a bold search by inhaling samples of several volatile chemicals collected for Simpson by British apothecaries. ________ suggested a chemical agent _______, which had first been prepared in 1831. Simpson and his friends inhaled it after dinner at a party in Simpson’s home on the evening of November 4, 1847. They promptly fell unconscious and, when they awoke, were delighted with their success.
David Waldie | Chloroform
42
Where did Simpson submitted his first publication?
The Lancet
43
Simpson argued against the prevailing view, which held that relieving labor pain opposed God’s will. The pain of the parturient was viewed as both a component of punishment and a means of atonement for Original Sin. Less than a year after administering the first anesthesia during childbirth, Simpson addressed these concerns in a pamphlet entitled?
Advanced Against the Employment of Anaesthetic Agents in Midwifery and Surgery and Obstetrics In it, Simpson recognized the Book of Genesis as being the root of this sentiment and noted that God promised to relieve the descendants of Adam and Eve of the curse. In addition, Simpson asserted that labor pain was a result of scientific and anatomic causes and not the result of religious condemnation.
44

Later recommended that cuffs be constructed of two layers of soft rubber cemented together.
