Survey of Anesthesiology, 1974
Treatment of Fischer 344 rats with phenobarbital prior to a low dose of methoxyflurane resulted in increased excretion of the methoxyflurane metabolites, inorganic fluoride and oxalic acid, increased urine flow rate and a greater degree of mitochondrial swelling in renal proximal convoluted tubule cells compared to that observed in rats treated with ...

A clinical trial of methoxyflurane

Irish Journal of Medical Science, 1963
A short clinical trial of Methoxyflurane, a new potent fluorinated ether, is reported. This agent is non-toxic, non-irritating, non-explosive and can be used with the ordinary vapourisers. Any degree of relaxation can be achieved with it. It can be used with carbon dioxide absorbers and does not seem to increase cardiac irritability. Recovery period is

Methoxyflurane and Renal Function

JAMA: The Journal of the American Medical Association, 1972
To the Editor.— Another study of methoxyflurane and renal function has recently appeared (218:841, 1971). The findings indicate temporary renal dysfunction in patients receiving methoxyflurane. It is of note that the duration of anesthesia was 187 ± 42 minutes and that the inhalation anesthetic was administered with the "vaporizer setting usually less

Methoxyflurane

2000
Abstract Methoxyflurane, the most potent of the hydrocarbon in halation anesthetics, is seldom used because of potential renal dysfunction. Methoxyflurane is metabolized to a greater extent than other volatile anesthetics; its principal metabolites are two nephrotoxic agents, oxalic acid and fluoride. ated with halothane and enflurane.
