Efficacy of domestic electronic vaporizer when used for sevoflurane anesthesia in rabbits / 中华麻醉学杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To evaluate the efficacy of domestic electronic vaporizer when used for sevoflurane anesthesia in rabbits.Methods Ninety healthy pathogen-free New Zealand rabbits of both sexes,aged 4-5 months,weighing 2.5-3.5 kg,were divided into 3 groups (n=30 each) using a random number tablemechanical vaporizer group (group M),domestic electronic vaporizer group (group E) and Zeus electronic vaporizer group (group Z).In group M,the mechanical vaporizer was used,the sevoflurane vaporizer dial was adjusted to 2％,with the fresh air flow set at 2 L/min.In E and Z groups,BR850 domestic electronic vaporizer and Zeus electronic vaporizer were used,respectively,and the concentration of sevoflurane inhaled was 2％.Sevoflurane was inhaled for 2 h in each group.The formula method and weighing method were used to calculate the consumption of sevoflurane in group M.The electronic calculation method and weighing method were used to calculate the consumption of sevoflurane in Z and E groups.The stable value of end-tidal sevoflurane concentration (ETCsev) and time for ETCsev reaching the stable value were recorded.ETCsev was recorded every 10 min after reaching the stable value (T1T12).Results Compared with group M,the consumption of sevoflurane (weighing method) was significantly reduced,and the time for ETCsev reaching the stable value was shortened in Z and E groups (P＜ 0.05).Compared with group Z,the consumption of sevoflurane (weighing method) was significantly increased (P＜0.05),and no significant change was found in the time for ETCsev reaching the stable value in group E (P＞0.05).Compared with the consumption of sevoflurane (weighing method),no significant change was found in the consumption of sevoflurane (electronic method) in group Z (P＞0.05),and the consumption of sevoflurane (electronic method) was significantly increased in group E (P＜0.05).There was no significant difference in the stable value of ETCsev between the three groups (P＜0.05).There was no significant difference in ETCsev between and within groups (P＞0.05).Conclusion The domestic electronic vaporizer achieves automatic and precise control of volatile concentrations of inhalation anesthetics and can be effectively used for sevoflurane anesthesia in rabbits.When compared with Zeus electronic vaporizer,the precision of the domestic electronic vaporizer needs further improvement,but the cost is obviously low,the compatibility is strong,and it has clinical application value.
