Abstract
We employ the generalized Sundman transformation method to obtain certain new first integrals of autonomous second-order ordinary differential equations belonging to the Painlevé-Gambier classification scheme. This method not only yields systematically the known first integrals of a large number of the Painlevé-Gambier equations but also some time dependent ones, which greatly simplify the computation of their corresponding solution. In addition we also compute the Sundman symmetries of these equations.
