SECTION TWO

ANAESTHETIC AGENTS

2.ANAESTHETIC AGENTS

The anaesthetic agents listed in the following table (Halothane, Enflurane, Isoflurane Sevoflurane, and Desflurane) were vaporised into a stream of 30%oxygen / 70% nitrous oxide. The resultant drops in displayed oxygen concentration after a 2 hour exposure period were observed. Exposurers in excess of 2 hours will provide marginally greater errors. The errors listed are typical for all gas permeable membrane oxygen sensors.

Exposure of the sensor to gas, free from any anaesthetic contamination, for a period of equal or greater than the exposure period, will eliminate the measurement error in most instances.

Caution: The TED 191 Portable Oxygen Monitor should not be used in the presence of flammable anaesthetics such as diethal ether or cyclpropane.

The T-7 oxygen sensor should not be left in nitrous oxide mixtures any longer than absolutely necessary. After exposure to nitrous oxide mixtures, the sensor should be left in 100% oxygen overnight (e.g. left in a breathing circuit that has been flushed with pure oxygen). If the oxygen reading continues to drop after each use in nitrous oxide, the sensor should be removed from service. If the sensor can no longer be calibrated, or if there is any sign of electrolyte leakage, the sensor should be disposed of in accordance with local regulations and the specific guidelines as given in the Material Safety Data Sheet of the sensor.
