Desflurane, with a low blood–gas partition coefficient, is an ideal anesthetic to achieve rapid offset and recovery from general anesthesia. Investigation of desflurane elimination from blood and respiratory gas should provide useful information with ...

Desflurane post-conditioning inhibits HMGB1 nucleocytoplasmic translocation via the SIRT1/HMGB1 axis to attenuate hepatic ischemia-reperfusion-induced acute lung injury in young rats [PDF]
Acute lung injury (ALI) is a common clinical complication in pediatric patients undergoing perioperative liver transplantation, and therapeutic approaches are limited.

Ephedrine-Triggered Torsades de Pointes in Two Patients Following Desflurane-Induced QT Prolongation. [PDF]
Desflurane‐induced QT prolongation followed by ephedrine‐triggered premature ventricular contractions led to torsades de pointes/ventricular fibrillation in two patients. These cases demonstrate sequential electrocardiographic progression and highlight the importance of careful vasopressor selection during general anesthesia.

The target concentration of remifentanil to suppress the hemodynamic response to endotracheal intubation during inhalational induction with desflurane [PDF]
BackgroundAnesthesia induction with desflurane is troublesome because of the frequent sympathetic hyperactivity during desflurane administration. We thought that a low concentration of desflurane combined with a target-controlled infusion (TCI) of ...

Cerebrovascular reactivity to hypercapnia during sevoflurane or desflurane anesthesia in rats [PDF]
Background Hypercapnia causes dilation of cerebral vessels and increases cerebral blood flow, resulting in increased intracranial pressure. Sevoflurane is reported to preserve cerebrovascular carbon dioxide reactivity.

Propofol prevents further prolongation of QT interval during liver transplantation
Here, we aimed to compare the effects of two anesthetic methods (desflurane inhalation anesthesia vs. propofol-based total intravenous anesthesia (TIVA)] on corrected QT interval (QTc) values during living donor liver transplantation.

Time course of end-tidal desflurane concentration during delivery and elimination according to the type and location of filters in a semi-closed circuit system [PDF]
BackgroundThe aim of this study was to determine whether the end-tidal concentration of desflurane would be affected by a breathing circuit system filter attached at two different positions in anesthetic breathing circuit systems.MethodsAn artificial ...
