The General Anesthetic Isoflurane Bilaterally Modulates Neuronal Excitability
iScience, 2020 Summary: Volatile anesthetics induce hyperactivity during induction while producing anesthesia at higher concentrations. They also bidirectionally modulate many neuronal functions. However, the neuronal mechanism is unclear.

Use of Volatile Anesthetics in Extracorporeal Circulation [PDF]
Brazilian Journal of Anesthesiology, 2012 The use of volatile anesthetics in cardiac surgery is not recent. Since the introduction of halothane in clinical practice, several cardiac surgery centers started to use these anesthetics constantly.In the last years a great number of studies have shown that the volatile anesthetics have a protecting effect against myocardial ischemic dysfunction ...
