Effect of N2O on sevoflurane vaporizer settings during minimal- and low-flow anesthesia.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Although hyper- and hypoglycemia induce neurophysiologic changes, there have been no reports on the effects of blood glucose changes on anesthetic requirements. This study examined the effects of hyper- and hypoglycemia on the minimum alveolar concentration (MAC) of halothane in rats. In addition, based on a...
