There are 8 subtypes of 241692007 |Inhalational induction (procedure)|. Six of these subtypes are complex concepts primarily created in 2002 with last modification in 2022. 

All theses concepts are leaf nodes and there are no specific references in literature (at least from my perspective).

• 24277005 |Inhalation anesthesia, machine system, closed, circulation of primary agent (procedure)|
• 44812007 |Inhalation anesthesia, machine system, closed, no rebreathing of primary agent (procedure)|
• 112987001 |Inhalation anesthesia, machine system, closed, rebreathing of primary agent (procedure)|
• 64287005 |Inhalation anesthesia, machine system, semi-closed, circulation of primary agent and gases (procedure)|
• 30050007 |Inhalation anesthesia, machine system, semi-closed, no rebreathing of primary agent (procedure)|
• 27653002 |Inhalation anesthesia, machine system, semi-closed, rebreathing of primary agent (procedure)|

Q1: Are these concepts up-to-date?

Q2: Are these concepts useful for clinical register?

Q3: If useful:

1. Should be kept under 241692007 |Inhalational induction (procedure)|?
2. Should be moved to be subsumed by 288185006 |Inhalation general anesthesia (procedure)|?
