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.

Effects of three fentanyl plasma concentrations on the minimum alveolar concentration of isoflurane in Hispaniolan Amazon parrots (Amazona ventralis).

American Journal of Veterinary Research, 2018
OBJECTIVE To determine effects of 3 plasma concentrations of fentanyl on the minimum alveolar concentration of isoflurane (MACiso) and cardiovascular variables in Hispaniolan Amazon parrots (Amazona ventralis). ANIMALS 6 adult parrots.

Determination of the Minimum Alveolar Concentration of Isoflurane in Llamas

Veterinary Surgery, 1999
Objective—To determine the minimum alveolar concentration (MAC) of isoflurane (ISO) in llamas.Study Design—Prospective study.Animals—Eight adult neutered male llamas (9 ± 1 years [x̄± SD], 177 ± 29 kg).Methods—Anesthesia was induced and maintained in otherwise unmedicated llamas with a mixture of ISO in oxygen administered through a standard small ...

Reduction of the Minimum Alveolar Concentration of Isoflurane by Dexmedetomidine 

Anesthesiology, 1997
Background alpha 2-Adrenergic agonists have been shown to reduce anesthetic requirements of other anesthetics, and they may even act as complete anesthetics by themselves at high doses in animal models. The present study was designed to define the interaction of intravenous infusion of dexmedetomidine, an alpha 2-adrenergic ...

Effects of acepromazine-morphine and acepromazine-methadone premedication on the minimum alveolar concentration of isoflurane in dogs.

Veterinary Anaesthesia and Analgesia, 2016
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the effects of premedication with acepromazine-morphine or acepromazine-methadone on the minimum alveolar concentration of isoflurane (ISOMAC) and the incidence of bradycardia and hypotension in dogs.

The Minimum Alveolar Concentration of Nitrous Oxide in Man

Anesthesia & Analgesia, 1982
The potency and anesthetic state produced by nitrous oxide alone were investigated in order to clarify its contribution to the effect of other anesthetic agents. Seven volunteers anesthetized with 1.55 atm absolute N2O in a pressure chamber displayed muscle rigidity with jerking movements, labored and rapid breathing, sweating, and dilated pupils. At 1.

The Minimum Alveolar Concentration (MAC) of Sevoflurane in Humans

Anesthesiology, 1987
Forty surgical patients were divided into two groups and anesthetized with either sevoflurane and oxygen or sevoflurane, oxygen, and nitrous oxide. The minimum alveolar concentration (MAC) for sevoflurane required to prevent movement in response to surgical incision in healthy patients was 1.71 +/- 0.07% (SE).

Association of Ethnicity with the Minimum Alveolar Concentration of Sevoflurane

Anesthesiology, 2007
Abstract Background: Selective breeding produces animal strains with varying anesthetic sensitivity. It thus seems unlikely that various human ethnicities have identical anesthetic requirements. Therefore, the authors tested the hypothesis that the minimum alveolar concentration of sevoflurane differs significantly as
