D008297	Male		Males
D011229	Preanesthetic Medication	Drugs administered before an anesthetic to decrease a patient's anxiety and control the effects of that anesthetic.	Medication, Preanesthetic,Medications, Preanesthetic,Preanesthetic Medications
D005334	Fever	An abnormal elevation of body temperature, usually as a result of a pathologic process.	Pyrexia,Fevers,Pyrexias
D006221	Halothane	A nonflammable, halogenated, hydrocarbon anesthetic that provides relatively rapid induction with little or no excitement. Analgesia may not be adequate. NITROUS OXIDE is often given concomitantly. Because halothane may not produce sufficient muscle relaxation, supplemental neuromuscular blocking agents may be required.
