Low-flow anaesthesia.
Although many anaesthesia machines are equipped with circle rebreathing systems, inhalational anaesthesia remains frequently performed using relatively high fresh-gas flows. The major advantages of rebreathing techniques can be achieved only if the fresh-gas flow is reduced to 1 l.min-1 or less. Although there are potential risks associated with low-flow anaesthesia, modern anaesthesia machines...
متن کاملLow flow, minimal flow and closed circuit system inhalational anesthesia in modern clinical practice
Low, minimal flow and closed circuit anesthesia has been pursued since the beginning of the history of anesthesia. For many decades this form of anesthesia has been restricted to devoted enthusiasts and those very fond of gas kinetics. For most clinicians, selecting a fresh flow gas higher than 3-5 L/min was widely accepted as a routine anesthesia technique. The introduction onto the market of ...
متن کاملLow-flow anaesthesia in paediatric patients.
Editor—We were interested in the study regarding carbon monoxide (CO) rebreathing during low-flow anaesthesia (LFA) in paediatric patients. It is reassuring to note that modern anaesthetic circuits do not contribute to CO rebreathing in the context of LFA, as elegantly demonstrated by an in vitro control experiment. Although the technique is becoming increasing popular, even in paediatric pract...
متن کاملLow-flow anaesthesia and carbon monoxide in paediatric patients.
Editor—We read with interest the paper by Nasr and colleagues regarding carbon monoxide (CO) rebreathing during low-flow anaesthesia (LFA) in infants and children and an earlier study by the same authors. We would like to call attention to two confounding issues. First, they have stated that an electrochemical sensor was used for measurement of CO in these studies in the range 0–2000 ppm, resol...
متن کاملCerebral Blood Flow and Anaesthesia : a Review
Adequate cerebral blood flow to each part of the brain is essential for its normal functioning as cerebral tissues are very intolerant of hypoxia. The cessation of cerebral blood flow/ circulation for a few minutes can produce permanent damage to the brain. In addition, the CBF determines the cerebral blood volume (CBV) which itself is the net result of cerebral arterial supply and venous drain...
