Influence of nitrous oxide on minimum alveolar concentration of sevoflurane for laryngeal mask insertion in children.
BACKGROUND Inhalational induction with sevoflurane and nitrous oxide is frequently used for Laryngeal Mask Airway (LMA; Laryngeal Mask Company, Henley-on-Thames, United Kingdom) insertion in children. The authors determined the influence of nitrous oxide on the minimum alveolar concentration (MAC) of sevoflurane for LMA insertion. METHODS One hundred twenty unpremedicated children (age, 1-9 y...
متن کاملAdditive contribution of nitrous oxide to sevoflurane minimum alveolar concentration for tracheal intubation in children.
BACKGROUND To study the interaction between nitrous oxide and sevoflurane during trachea intubation, the authors determined the minimum alveolar concentration of sevoflurane for tracheal intubation (MAC(TI)) with and without nitrous oxide in children. METHODS Seventy-two children aged 1-7 yr were assigned randomly to receive one of three end-tidal concentrations of nitrous oxide and one of fo...
متن کاملEffects of Lidocaine, Dexmedetomidine or Their Combination on the Minimum Alveolar Concentration of Sevoflurane in Dogs
The aim of this study was to determine the effects of lidocaine (LIDO) and dexmedetomidine (DEX) or their combination (LIDO-DEX), administered by constant-rate infusion (CRI), on the minimum alveolar concentration (MAC) of sevoflurane in dogs. Seven healthy mongrel dogs were used with a 2-week washout interval between treatments in this study. Anesthesia was induced with propofol and maintained...
متن کاملInfluence of sepsis on sevoflurane minimum alveolar concentration in a porcine model.
Sevoflurane is widely used in anaesthetic protocols for patients undergoing surgical procedures. However, there are no reports on the influence of sepsis on minimum alveolar concentration of sevoflurane (MAC(SEV)) in animals or in humans. The aim of this study was to test the hypothesis that sepsis could alter the MAC(SEV) in a normotensive septic pig model. Twenty young, healthy pigs were used...
متن کاملMinimum alveolar concentration: A reconsideration
Minimum alveolar concentration (MAC), served as the vital concept for standard measure of potency for inhaled volatile anesthetic agents, has been employed in anesthetic practice for more than 50 years. A re-consideration in the connotation and influence factors on MAC is introduced in this article. MAC actually indicates “median effective dose (ED50) for immobility”, but it is at least not com...
