It was used by staff of Walker General Hospital on the Seventh Doctor in the operating theatre when he went in for emergency heart stabilising surgery. The Doctor awoke from pre-op sedation by Madame Butterfly, and the anaesthesiologist used it to put the Doctor under. The Doctor died while anaesthetised, which delayed the regeneration process. The regeneration process came hours after the death, aggravated with a temporary amnesia; the Eighth Doctor ascribed such side effects to the anaesthetic.
