The thermodynamics of general anesthesia [PDF]

Biophys. J. 92 (2007) 3159-3165, 2006
It is known that the action of general anesthetics is proportional to their partition coefficient in lipid membranes (Meyer-Overton rule). This solubility is, however, directly related to the depression of the temperature of the melting transition found close to body temperature in biomembranes. We propose a thermodynamic extension of the Meyer-Overton

Pharmacokinetic/Pharmacodynamic Anesthesia Model Incorporating psi-Caputo Fractional Derivatives [PDF]

Computers in Biology and Medicine 167 (2023), Art. 107679, 9 pp, 2023
We present a novel Pharmacokinetic/Pharmacodynamic (PK/PD) model for the induction phase of anesthesia, incorporating the $\psi$-Caputo fractional derivative. By employing the Picard iterative process, we derive a solution for a nonhomogeneous $\psi$-Caputo fractional system to characterize the dynamical behavior of the drugs distribution within a ...

Inhalation and deposition of spherical and pollen particles after middle turbinate resection in a human nasal cavity [PDF]

Respiratory Physiology & Neurobiology Volume 294, December 2021, 103769, 2021
Middle turbinate resection significantly alters the anatomy and redistributes the inhaled air. The superior half of the main nasal cavity is opened up, increasing accessibility to the region. This is expected to increase inhalation dosimetry to the region during exposure to airborne particles.

Effects of Δ⁹-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) vapor inhalation in Sprague-Dawley and Wistar rats. [PDF]

, 2021
An inhalation system based on e-cigarette technology produces hypothermic and antinociceptive effects of Δ⁹-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) in rats. Indirect comparison of some prior investigations suggested differential impact of inhaled THC between Wistar ...

Anesthesia in the surgery of strabismus: role of anesthetic agents in the ocular deviation and surgical outcome [PDF]

, 2015
Purpose: To determine whether the changes in the ocular alignment following general anesthesia, maintained with two different inhalational anesthetic agents, sevoflurane and desflurane, can be used as a predictor for surgical outcomes in children with ...

Type of Anesthesia Influences Positron Emission Tomography Measurements of Dopamine D2/3 Receptor Binding in the Rat Brain [PDF]

, 2011
Rats are often anesthetized prior to positron emission tomography (PET) brain imaging in order to prevent head movements. Anesthesia can be administered by inhalation agents, such as isoflurane (Forene), or injection mixtures, such as fentanyl-fluanisone-
