1-1-12 one-step wash-in scheme for desflurane low flow anesthesia: performance without nitrous oxide

Abstract: BackgroundWe reported a 1-1-12 wash-in scheme for desflurane-nitrous oxide (N2O) low flow anesthesia that is simple, rapid, and predictable. There remain some situations where N2O should be avoided, which limits the generalizability of this wash-in scheme. The objective of our study was to determine the performance of this scheme in contexts where N2O is not used.MethodsWe recruited 106 patients scheduled for elective surgery under general anesthesia. After induction and intubation, wash-in was started with a … Show more

“…The changes in heart rate and blood pressure during the wash-in process are similar to the 1-1-12 wash-in scheme for desflurane [15,16] (i.e., slightly increasing initially then gradually decreasing as presented in Fig. 5).…”

“…Comparing with a similar 1-1-12 wash-in scheme for desflurane LFA which uses desflurane 12% (2 MAC) [15,16], the current 1-1-8 sevoflurane wash-in scheme uses a higher MAC (8% or 4 MAC) of sevoflurane. The reasons are that (a) sevoflurane has greater blood and fat solubility than desflurane, leading to higher body tissue uptake, which results in a longer time to achieve an equivalent MAC; and, (b) sevoflurane has a 3 times lower MAC value, hence 4 MAC of sevoflurane was used to augment a concentration effect [11].…”

“…Several different methods have been proposed that enable LFA administration without prolonging wash-in time. [6][7][8] However, in these methods, high FGF rates are used during the wash-in period. The use of such high FGF rates during the early phase of anesthesia may increase the overall anesthetic agent consumption, although there is not much work on this topic.…”
