Comparison of inhalation inductions with xenon and sevoflurane

Background: Xenon is an odorless gas with low blood-gas solubility coefficient and without occupational and environmental hazards. This investigation was performed to evaluate the speed of induction, and respiratory and cardiovascular reactions to inhalation induction with xenon compared to an equianesthetic concentration of sevoflurane.
Results: Compared to equianesthetic sevoflurane, xenon produced a faster induction of anesthesia (14759 versus 71221 s, respectively) with smaller decreases in respiratory rate, tidal volume and minute ventilation. Both agents showed comparable cardiovascular stability and oxygen saturation during induction. One patient in the sevoflurane group had breath-holding and movements of extremities and another had only breath-holding. No patients in the xenon group experienced any complications.
Conclusion: Xenon produced a faster induction of anesthesia without any complications than sevoflurane. Xenon had smaller decreases in tidal volume and respiratory rate during induction than sevoflurane. Xenon might offer an alternative to sevoflurane for an inhalation induction.
Method Twenty-four adult ASA 1–2 patients premedicated with 0.05 mg/kg of midazolam were instructed to take vital capacity breaths of 1 minimum alveolar concentration (MAC) of either xenon or sevoflurane until they lost consciousness. Induction time, total ventilatory volume, tidal volume, respiratory rate, minute ventilation, end-tidal MAC fraction, cardiovascular parameters and oxygen saturation were recorded. The patients were interviewed on the following day to evaluate their acceptability rating of the inhalation inductions.     

Different effects of halothane, isoflurane and sevoflurane on sarcoplasmic reticulum of vascular smooth muscle in dog mesenteric artery

Background: The direct effect of halothane on vascular smooth muscle is mediated in part via its effects on the sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR). Little information is available concerning the effects of other volatile anesthetics including isoflurane and sevoflurane, whose vascular effects differ from those of halothane. The aim of the present study was to compare the effects of halothane, isoflurane and sevoflurane on the SR by testing the contraction induced by caffeine in vascular smooth muscle. Methods: Rings without endothelium from isolated canine mesenteric artery were mounted in physiological saline solution (PSS) for isometric tension recording. After complete depletion of Ca²⁺ from the SR by adding 35 mM caffeine, the rings were exposed to normal Ca²⁺ containing PSS (Ca²⁺ loading), to Ca²⁺-free PSS for 10 min, and then to 15 mM caffeine to induce contraction. Anesthetics were administered during Ca²⁺ loading, the Ca²⁺-free phase and simultaneously with caffeine administration. Results: Halothane (0.5-2%) attenuated the caffeine-induced contraction of canine mesenteric artery when administered during Ca²⁺ loading in the SR (P<0.001), whereas isoflurane and sevoflurane (1–4%) failed to affect the contraction. When given simultaneously with caffeine, halothane (1–2%) potentiated the caffeine-induced contraction (P<0.05), but isoflurane and sevoflurane had no effect. When given before caffeine administration, halothane (0.5-2%), isoflurane (24%) and sevoflurane (4%) all potentiated the caffeine-induced contraction (P<0.05). Conclusion: It has been shown that halothane not only potentiates caffeine- induced Ca²⁺ release from the SR, but also induces contraction by releasing Ca²⁺ from the SR. We conclude that halothane decreases Ca²⁺ accumulation in the SR while exerting facilitative and additive effects on caffeine-induced Ca²⁺ release from the SR when applied before caffeine administration and simultaneously with caffeine, respectively, whereas isoflurane and sevoflurane lack both the ability to decrease Ca²⁺ accumulation and an additive effect on caffeine-induced Ca²⁺ release from the SR, but are able to facilitate Ca²⁺ release by caffeine.

Uptake and biotransformation of sevof lurane in humans: A comparative study of sevof lurane with halothane, enflurane, and isoflurane

Study Objective: To compare the volatile anesthetic sevoflurane with halothane, enfurane, and isof urane on the uptake and biotransformation in humans.

Design: Prospective pharmacokinetic study of sevofurane administration in human subjects.

Setting: Inpatient surgery clinic at a university medical center.

Patients: Thirty-two Japanese patients, free of systemic diseases, undergoing minor elective surgery with endotracheal general anesthesia.

Interventions: The patients were assigned randomly to one of four groups: halothane, enflurane, isofurane, or sevofurane. One of the four volatile anesthetics being investigated [equivalent to 1.1 minimum alveolar concentration (MAC): halothane, 0.85%; enfurane, 1.85%; isofurane, 1.27%; and sevofurane, 1.88%; in inspired concentrations throughout the first hour of anesthesia] was administered for 60 minutes.

Measurements and Main Results: In all patients, serum and urinary fluoride concentrations were measured. The concentrations of all gases were measured separately with a mass spectrometer. The cumulative uptake of each anesthetic agent during a certain period was calculated as an integration of the uptake rate per minute. The results for one-hour inhalation of sevofurane (1.1 MAC) showed an uptake (corrected for body surface area and MAC) of 490 ml/m²/MAC and estimated degradation rate of 3.3%. For purposes of comparison, similar studies of halothane (uptake, 653 ml/m²/MAC; degradation rate 15.7%), enfurane (1150 ml/m²/MAC; 1.3%), and isofurane (439 ml/m²/MAC; 0.6%) were also conducted. Sevofurane had a peak serum inorganic fluoride concentration of 19.3 μmol/L, and no abnormality in hepatic or renal functions was observed in any of the subjects during the two weeks postoperatively.

Conclusions: Accurate determinations of uptake and degradation rate for sevoflurane and three other volatile anesthetics in Japanese patients were obtained. These findings have established that, despite its relatively large MAC *1.71%), sevoflurane has a small uptake due to its low solubility. However, the degradation rade was shown to be as high as 3.3%, resulting in a higher serum fluoride concentration than seen after administration of isoflurane, halothane, and (possibly) enflurane.

A comparison of postoperative respiratory complications associated with the use of desflurane and sevoflurane: a single-centre cohort study

Sevoflurane and desflurane are the most commonly used volatile anaesthetics for maintenance of anaesthesia. In this study, we aimed to evaluate the relationship between choice of volatile anaesthetic and early postoperative respiratory complications, and to address a critical knowledge gap in safety outcomes between these two commonly used agents. We performed a retrospective analysis of adult (non-cardiac surgery) patients who received sevoflurane or desflurane for the maintenance of general anaesthesia at our institution between 2005 and 2018. We evaluated the association between desflurane exposure (when compared with sevoflurane) and the primary outcome of postoperative respiratory complications, defined by early post-extubation desaturation (S_pO₂ < 90%) or re-intubation within 7 days postoperatively. Multivariable regression analyses were performed and adjusted for confounding factors, including patient, anaesthetic and surgical factors. Propensity matched, interaction and sub-group analyses were performed to assess outcomes in high-risk groups: morbidly obese (BMI > 35 kg.m⁻²); elderly (age > 65 years); and high risk of respiratory complications as well as the primary outcome at 24 h. Desflurane was used for 23,830 patients and sevoflurane for 84,608 patients. Patients exposed to desflurane did not demonstrate a reduced risk of postoperative respiratory complications when compared with sevoflurane (adjusted odds ratio 0.99, 95%CI 0.94–1.04, p = 0.598). These findings were consistent across all sub-groups of high-risk patients and in the propensity score matched cohort. In summary, desflurane use was not associated with reduced postoperative respiratory complications when compared with sevoflurane. In the context of environmental and cost concerns with volatile anaesthetic agents, our study provides important data to support organisational decisions regarding the use of desflurane.     

Airway irritation produced by volatile anaesthetics during brief inhalation: comparison of halothane,enflurane, isoflurane and sevoflurane

Eleven male volunteers were studied to compare the airway irritation produced by the four anaesthetic agents: halothane, enflurane, isoflurane and sevoflurane at two concentrations, equivalent to one and two MAC. Tidal volume, respiratory frequency and functional residual capacity changes induced by 15 sec inhalation of the anaesthetics were measured using respiratory inductive plethysmograph. Appearance of the cough reflex was also observed. The order of subjective airway irritation was evaluated by the volunteers. Inhalation of the anaesthetic agents induced a decrease in tidal volume, increase in respiratory frequency and decrease in functional residual capacity. Significant changes were considered to have occurred if tidal volume and respiratory frequency changed by more than 30% from the resting values for at least ten seconds, or if functional residual capacity changed by more than 30% of the value at resting tidal volume, for at least ten seconds. Each change was induced most frequently by isoflurane followed by enflurane, halothane and, least frequently, by sevoflurane. The orders of appearance of the cough reflex and of subjective airway irritation were similar. Sevoflurane did not elicit a cough reflex. It is concluded that sevoflurane was the least irritant anaesthetic and is considered to be the most suitable for inhalational induction of anaesthesia. Sept volontaires du sexe masculin font partie dune étude visant à comparer les ejfets irritants de quatre agents anesthésiques sur les voies respiratoires: l’halothane, l’enflurane, l’ isoflurane et le sévoflurane, à deux concentration qui équivalent soit à MAC 1, soit à MAC 2. On mesure les changements de volume courant, de fréquence respiratoire et de capacité résiduelle fonctionnelle à l’aide d’un pléthysmographie à induction. On note l’apparition du réflexe de toux. De plus, on évalue le degré subjectif d’irritation éprouvé par les sujets. L’inhalation d’agents anesthésiques cause une baisse du volume courant, une augmentation de la fréquence respiratoire et une diminution de la capacité résiduelle fonctionnelle. On considère significatifs les changements de volume courant et de fréquence respiratoire de plus de 30% des valeurs de repos pour au moins dix secondes, les changements de capacité résiduelle fonctionnelle de plus de 30% de sa valeur au volume courant de repos pour au moins dix secondes. Les changements sont initiés principalement par l’isoflurane, suivi par l’enflurane, l’halothane et moins fréquemment par le sévoflurane. L’ordre d’apparition du réflexe de toux et de l’impression subjective d’irritation des voies aériennes est identique. Le sévoflurane ne provoque pas de réflexe de toux. On conclut que le sévoflurane est le moins irritant des anesthesiques et qu’on peut le considerer comme celui qui convient le mieux à l’induction de l’anesthésie par inhalation.
