Synopsis
L’anesthésie, en tant que pratique, est née au milieu du XIXe siècle. Eugène Soubeiran (1797-1858) prépare en 1831 le chloroforme. En 1884, Carl Köller utilise la cocaïne pour l’anesthésie par contact. La même année, Richard Hall inaugure son emploi en chirurgie dentaire et William Halsted introduit la technique du « bloc nerveux ». [source : catalogue CCEP]
