Ethanol reduces the minimum alveolar concentration of sevoflurane in rats [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2022 A high number of trauma patients are under the influence of alcohol. Since many of them need immediate surgical procedures, it is imperative to be aware of the interaction of alcohol with general anesthesia. To counter challenges that arise from clinical

The Minimum Alveolar Concentration of Enflurane in Man [PDF]
Anesthesiology, 1971 The minimum alveolar concentration (MAC) of enflurane in man was found to be 1.68 per cent, a value close to that which would have been predicted, based on its lipid solubility.

Minimum Alveolar Concentration of Halothane: An Ethnic Comparison [PDF]
Journal of the Royal Army Medical Corps, 1993 The minimum alveolar concentration (estimate of spread) of halothane which was determined in 42 Chinese, Nepalese or European patients was found to be 0.70% (0.66-0.74%) in Chinese and 0.70% (0.65-0.76%) in Nepalese and 0.68% (0.65-0.72%) in Europeans, using the Spearman Kärber method of analysis. This preliminary trial suggests that there is no ethnic

Isoflurane Minimum Alveolar Concentration Reduction by Fentanyl [PDF]
Anesthesiology, 1993 Isoflurane is commonly combined with fentanyl during anesthesia. Because of hysteresis between plasma and effect site, bolus administration of fentanyl does not accurately describe the interaction between these drugs. The purpose of this study was to determine the MAC reduction of isoflurane by fentanyl when both drugs had reached steady biophase ...

Minimum alveolar concentration: A reconsideration [PDF]
Translational Perioperative and Pain Medicine, 2017 Minimum alveolar concentration (MAC), served as the vital concept for standard measure of potency for inhaled volatile anesthetic agents, has been employed in anesthetic practice for more than 50 years. A re-consideration in the connotation and influence

Lidocaine, dexmedetomidine and their combination reduce isoflurane minimum alveolar concentration in dogs. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 The effects of intravenous (i.v.) lidocaine, dexmedetomidine and their combination delivered as a bolus followed by a constant rate infusion (CRI) on the minimum alveolar concentration of isoflurane (MACISO) in dogs were evaluated.

Age, Minimum Alveolar Anesthetic Concentration, and Minimum Alveolar Anesthetic Concentration-Awake
Anesthesia & Analgesia, 2001 Two defining effects of inhaled anesthetics (immobility in the face of noxious stimulation, and absence of memory) correlate with the end-tidal concentrations of the anesthetics. Such defining effects are characterized as MAC (the concentration producing immobility in 50% of patients subjected to a noxious stimulus) and MAC-Awake (the concentration ...

Anesthesia & Analgesia, 1998 We evaluated the effects of i.v. adenosine triphosphate (ATP) on sevoflurane minimum alveolar anesthetic concentration (MAC) and MAC-Awake. The study group included healthy patients 20-60 yr of age. The study groups for MAC-Awake determination included 49 patients who were scheduled for elective surgery.

Minimum Alveolar Concentration (MAC) of Xenon with Sevoflurane in Humans [PDF]
Anesthesiology, 2001 Background Although more than 30 yr ago the minimum alveolar concentration (MAC) of xenon was determined to be 71%, that previous study had technological limitations, and no other studies have confirmed the MAC value of xenon since.
