Ventilatory effects of isoflurane: a comparison with halothane in a draw-over system.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Halothane and isoflurane were studied using a draw-over anaesthetic system in two groups each of 25 patients to compare the ventilatory effects of the two agents in field anaesthesia. Respiratory variables were measured and it was confirmed that isoflurane is a more potent respiratory depressant than halothane, but satisfactory anaesthesia for short procedures was possible.

Sevoflurane Output in the Isoflurane/Halothane Diamedica Draw-over Vaporiser.
INTRODUCTION Draw-over anaesthesia remains an attractive option for conduct of anaesthesia in austere conditions. The Diamedica Draw-over Vaporiser (DDV) is a modern draw-over vaporiser and has separate models for isoflurane/halothane and sevoflurane. MATERIALS AND METHODS A laboratory study was done to measure sevoflurane output in an isoflurane/ halothane DDV. We did 3 series of experiments...
متن کاملEffects of halothane, isoflurane and enflurane on ventilation in children.
The ventilatory effects of halothane in eight children were compared with those of isoflurane in eight children and enflurane in six children. All studies were completed before surgery commenced, and the children received no preoperative medication. The depression of ventilation produced by the three agents increased in a dose-related fashion as the alveolar concentrations were increased, and t...
متن کاملDepression of hypoxic ventilatory response by halothane, enflurane and isoflurane in dogs.
The ventilatory responses to isocapnic hypoxia and hypercapnia were studied in six dogs each with a tracheostomy, awake and during anaesthesia with halothane, enflurane and isoflurane (1-2.5 MAC). Isocapnic hypoxic ventilatory response (HVR) was expressed as the parameter A, such that the greater the value of A, the greater the hypoxic response. In the anaesthetized dogs HVR (A) was reduced sig...
متن کاملComparison of the effects of sevoflurane, isoflurane and halothane on rat myocardium.
The effects of sevoflurane on myocardial contraction and relaxation are poorly understood. Therefore, we studied the effects of equianaesthetic concentrations (0.5, 1, 1.5, 2 and 2.5 MAC) of sevoflurane, isoflurane and halothane on inotropic and lusitropic (myocardial relaxation) variables, and post-rest potentiation in rat left ventricular papillary muscles in vitro. Sevoflurane and isoflurane...
متن کاملThe effects of halothane and isoflurane on cardiovascular function in laterally recumbent horses.
BACKGROUND Experimental studies in adult horses have shown that general anaesthesia maintained with isoflurane is associated with less depression of cardiovascular function compared with halothane anaesthesia. Adverse effects of intermittent positive-pressure ventilation (IPPV) have also been demonstrated. Nevertheless, the haemodynamic effects of these agents and the effects of differing modes...
