Toxicity of inhalation anaesthetic agents.
Although hundreds of compounds on the chemist's shelf are known to produce anaesthesia, relatively few are used clinically. The requirements for a clinically useful anaesthetic agent are necessarily stringent and include: a wide margin of safety, total reversibility of anaesthetic effect and an absence of long-term toxicity. In addition, a successful inhalation anaesthetic agent must combine th...
متن کاملWhy the new inhalation agents?
The pharmacokinetic features of new intravenous (i.v.) anaesthesia [1]. Sevoflurane lacks pungency and airway irritability so that induction of anaesthesia can be anaesthetic drugs permit a rapid equilibration between plasma and receptor site concentrations which eneasily achieved in children and adults. Cardiovascular and respiratory events are reduced compared with ables a rapid onset. Furthe...
متن کاملPersonality, A ect and Emotion Taxonomy for Socially Intelligent Agents
In this article, we describe an A ective Knowledge Representation (AKR) scheme to represent emotion schemata to be used in the design a variety of socially intelligent arti cial agents. Our approach in this article and in the applications of our AKR scheme, focusses on the notion of \social expertise" of socially intelligent agents in terms of their 1) external behavior and 2) internal motivati...
متن کاملInhalation challenges with agents causing occupational asthma.
Occupational asthma (OA) is steadily emerging as the principal cause of respiratory disease due to the workplace environment. One of the key means to ascertain diagnosis of OA is specific inhalation challenge (SIC) with occupational agents. This review: 1) describes the methodology of SIC, with a special emphasis on procedures aimed at increasing the safety and validity of these tests; and 2) o...
متن کاملInhalation carcinogenesis of various alkylating agents.
A series of earlier studies showed that inhalation exposures of rats to three water-reactive electrophilic compounds produced brisk yields of nasal cancer even when the animals were exposed for only 30 days (6 hr/day X 5 day/wk). In addition, carcinogenic potencies of the compounds appeared to relate to their chemical reactivities as measured by hydrolysis rates. For a further study of this phe...
