Abstract
In 11 cases of severe hiccups (1 case of epidemic hiccups, 2 cases of hiccups during or after conventional anesthesia and 8 cases of hiccups after laparotomies and cystotomies) the author applied inhalation of carbon dioxide in the proportion of 5-5.6% to air or oxygen. Hiccups disappeared either during inhalations, or after them, in some cases completely.
