Minimum alveolar concentration of halothanediethyl‐ether azeotrope

Acta Anaesthesiologica Scandinavica, 1991
The azeotropic mixture of halothane and diethyl ether (HE) may be a valuable alternative to other anaesthetic agents under circumstances such as war, civil disaster, and primitive conditions. In the present study the minimum alveolar concentrations (MACs) for HE in man (n = 25) and in pigs (n = 6) were determined.

Minimum alveolar concentration of isoflurane in green iguanas and the effect of butorphanol on minimum alveolar concentration

Journal of the American Veterinary Medical Association, 2003
Abstract Objective—To determine minimum alveolar concentration (MAC) of isoflurane in green iguanas and effects of butorphanol on MAC. Design—Prospective randomized trial. Animals—10 healthy mature iguanas. Procedure—In each iguana, MAC was measured 3 times: twice after induction of anesthesia with isoflurane and

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 ...

The Minimum Alveolar Concentration of Desflurane in Cats

Veterinary Surgery, 1995
Eight adult cats, 4 male and 4 female, (3.5 ± 0.9 [SD] kg) were used to determine the minimum alveolar concentration (MAC) of desflurane. Desflurane (DES) anesthesia was induced in a 20 L chamber with an oxygen inflow of 10 L/min and the DES vaporizer set at 18%.

The minimum alveolar concentration of sevoflurane in cats

Journal of Anesthesia, 1988
Eight adult cats of either sex were studied. The minimal alveolar concentration (MAC) for sevoflurane in the cats was found to be 2.58 +/- 0.30% (mean +/- SD). The ratios of MAC values between sevoflurane and halothane, enflurane and isoflurane in cats were very similar to those ratios found in humans and dogs.

The minimum alveolar concentration of sevoflurane in rats

European Journal of Anaesthesiology, 1997
There are only limited data on sevoflurane minimum alveolar concentration (MAC) in rats. This study was designed to determine the minimum alveolar concentration value for sevoflurane in younger and older rats. Minimum alveolar concentration determination was performed in spontaneously breathing animals, 9-week-old rats (younger, n = 8) and more than 13-

The Minimum Alveolar Concentration of Enflurane in Man

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.

Postpartum Changes in the Minimum Alveolar Concentration of Isoflurane

Survey of Anesthesiology, 1995
Background Minimum alveolar concentration (MAC) is decreased in pregnancy, but it is not known how quickly after delivery MAC returns to normal. We measured the MAC of isoflurane in a group of women undergoing elective tubal ligation after delivery.
