Anesthesiology, 1994
Desflurane and sevoflurane provide one clear advantage over other currently available potent inhaled anesthetics. Their lower solubilities permit a more precise control over the delivery of anesthesia and a more rapid recovery from anesthesia. Most of their other properties reflect similar properties of their predecessors--with a few exceptions. Indeed,

Abuse of Inhalation Anesthetics
JAMA: The Journal of the American Medical Association, 1984To the Editor.— In the article on drug abuse in anesthesia by Ward et al,1no cases of inhalation abuse were cited. In my nationwide survey on sudden death in teenagers associated with sniffing abuse of volatile hydrocarbons,2four adult male deaths were discovered in which the self-administered inhalants were abused in hospital operating rooms.

Safety of Intravenous and Inhalation Anesthetics
2022Here is presented, in chronological order, the studies that established the standards and determined the parameters currently considered for the safe use of anesthetic agents administered by intravenous or inhalation routes. The methods used in the experimental settings, as well as the modifications in the protocols to adapt to different clinical ...

Pharmacology of Inhaled Anesthetics
2017Inhalational agents are chemical compounds that produce general anesthesia and are delivered via inhalation. They are used in anesthesia primarily to produce a loss of consciousness, but may have other lesser effects such as muscle relaxation and analgesia. Nitrous oxide is the only currently used inorganic inhalational agent.

Hypocapnic Bronchoconstriction and Inhalation Anesthetics
Anesthesiology, 1975The effects of halothane, enflurane, and methoxyflurane on hypocapnic bronchoconstriction (increased airway resistance and decreased compliance of the lung) were studied in vivo in the isolated left lower lobe of the canine lung. Hypocapnic bronchoconstriction, induced by altering the concentration of CO2 in gas ventilating the lobe, was repeated in ...

The pharmacology of inhaled anesthetics
Seminars in Anesthesia, Perioperative Medicine and Pain, 2005The two most popular potent inhaled anesthetics, desflurane and sevoflurane, differ in pharmacological advantages and disadvantages in sometimes subtle and sometimes obvious ways. Sevoflurane has a low solubility and absent pungency that makes it easy to use and is the anesthetic of choice for an inhalational induction of anesthesia.

Inhalational anesthetics: Desflurane and sevoflurane
Journal of Clinical Anesthesia, 1995This article reviews the physico-chemical properties and performance characteristics of the two new potent inhaled anesthetics, desflurane and sevoflurane. Both drugs provide a greater degree of control of anesthetic depth and a more rapid immediate recovery from anesthesia than is currently available with other inhaled agents because of their ...
